    The answer for this is that the curriculum is the as same as a regular MBA with theoretical as well as practical training at the same time. The only difference you'd find is that everything happens virtually over here. The curriculum of Distance MBA is quite concise. The curriculum includes both theory and Practical training in the regular MBA programme at the same time.

    The curriculum is the same as a traditional MBA, with both theoretical and practical training. The only distinction is that everything takes place virtually. The Distance MBA curriculum is quite condensed. In the regular MBA programme, the curriculum includes both theory and practical training. But the in campus exposure you would gain is evidently incomparable and will subject you to immense learning opportunities. Adding a loophole in the sector of Distance MBA. So that implies the significance of earning a degree in regulars MBA. It is especially important for the candidate to shortlist the best institute for the pursuit of their hi

    Dear Pawan, there is only a difference of study mode. In regular MBA programme you will have to attend the classes but in distance mode of study you will get all the study material from the institution. You do not need to attend the classes in distance mode of study. Course fee is also a major difference between both the study modes. You will have to spend a lot of money on regular mode of study and on the other hand MBA from distance education will be much economic than the regular MBA.

    Full time MBA requires your complete commitment for two years. This is the most preferred by recruiters and organisations. Distance/ correspondence courses are more about self-study where the study material is sent to the student and they have to understand and learn it on their own. The main advantage of this is fees is low compared to executive and full time. In distance MBA, you'll have classes once or twice during the weekends, and you'll have exams twice a year.

    Hi, The difference as the name suggests is in the mode of study, both are designed for different sections of people and both are relevant looking at the cause for which MBA is being done. Regular courses are classroom session courses where students have to attend classes; this is nothing but Full time MBA which requires your complete commitment for two years. This is the most preferred by recruiters and organisations. Distance/ correspondence courses are more about self-study where the study material is sent to the student and they have to understand and learn it on their own.

    Distance MBA is acquiring management education through distance learning. The difference between a regular/full-time MBA and distance MBA is 'the element of distance'. In distance MBA, students have the flexibility to study from anywhere-any time. They are not restricted by any means and can also work while studying.
