AU MBA Alumni Testimonials

Athabasca University offered a program that was right for me, because it had both the credibility I desired and the flexibility that I needed. I live in Texas, but my work in the area of energy software consulting required me to travel a significant percentage of the time. My laptop, an Internet connection, and a few textbooks per course were usually all I required to stay on track with my MBA studies while I was traveling. Given the demands of my career, I believe I would have been hard pressed to have finished my MBA any other way.
