UWCCorp.com Fills Gap Between MBA and Digital Business Landscape

Online, May 15, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Graduates who earn their Master's in Business Administration may have a great deal of knowledge to apply to the professional world-but is it the right knowledge? An article in the Huffington Post considers the skills these fresh professionals are lacking. UWCCorp.com, an online educational resource for entrepreneurs, has unveiled new educational modules that fill the gap between the education of an MBA and the needs of the real world.

Graduating with a Master's degree is, in many respects, the mark of a student ready to conquer the professional world. This is generally thought to be true of students who pursue their Master's in Business Administration, or MBA. However, current professional demands may be pushing the curriculum of even the most highly regarded MBA programs from spot on to obsolete. In an article on the Huffington Post, Michael Kempner considers the ways in which an MBA may fall short of contemporary business needs. UWCCorp.com, an online educational resource, knows that all of the information one needs to become a successful entrepreneur cannot be gleaned from an MBA program. For this reason, UWCCorp.com fills in the gap between an MBA's curriculum and the skills students need to thrive in the real world.

Kempner reports that, according to Mark Fidelman, 36 percent of the top 25 business schools in the US do not offer social media or social business classes. Furthermore, only one of these schools requires social media and business courses to graduate. As a result, Kempner notes, the next generation of business leaders may not know how to use the social resources at their disposal. Ultimately, they will not be able to create the social media programs they need to promote their brands.

Although social media marketing was once viewed as an option, today's business leaders know that a successful marketing campaign is not complete with a social media strategy. The manner in which social media grows brand visibility is simply different from any other marketing tactic.

Kempner fully understands the danger that this gap in social marketing skills creates: "We're facing a social media skills gap that can have serious implications, not just to a company's reputation, but to its long-term growth, and ultimately, our national competitiveness."

UWCCorp.com is an Internet-based educational program that has the potential to address this gap. In fact, the system offers training modules on a variety of Internet-based skills that today's entrepreneurs must master in order to succeed. Most notably, it provides training pertaining to the use of social media marketing in a business setting.
