If you are getting a promotion in same company by doing this course then you may explore it. But if you are expecting the market to value that Upgrad MBA and offer you jobs similar to full time MBA's then it's a wrong expectation.

Has anyone successfully made the career move from an HR specialization to an HRBP role? If so, how? I have been working for 7 years in a very niche HR specialization and while I wear many hats on the HR team, I feel like this is hard to express to recruiters or even get an interview for an HRBP role. My niche area has really burnt me out, as it’s very political and I want to expand my horizons. I am already working on completing my GPHR certification. Any other tips?
