Your Career, Your MBA
The Helzberg Stackable MBA is all about adding value to your education by allowing you to build and customize a degree that makes sense for your future. Certificates on their own hold value in the workforce by helping you meet your career goals sooner. By stacking two earned certificates along with the foundational, Business Administration Certificate, you will be working toward a full MBA degree.
Our faculty has developed the foundational curriculum of one of the best MBA programs in Kansas City into a stand-alone certificate – the Business Administration certificate. This, along with two additional specialized certificates, make up the Helzberg MBA. Students earn a custom MBA with specializations in areas that are selected and flexible based on the direction you want your career to go.
In other words, flexibility has been built into every facet of the Helzberg Stackable MBA: Program Details
