Hi All, My sister has done Computer Science engineering Bachelor degree and has 5 years of work experience in India. She is applying for MBA at https://www.kenan-flagler.unc.edu/programs/mba/full-time-mba/ and https://kelley.iu.edu/programs/full-time-mba/academics/majors-minors/marketing.html. Her overall goal is to get into Software Product management. Any suggestions if any of these MBA’s can open path in the desired space or if she is better of doing an MS in Comp engg. to further develop deeper Technology skills. Thanks

PMP vs. real life project management = 2 different things
I get the need for certs for certain tech skills (in cyber, digital forensics, or even a cert like the CFE), but for project mgmt, in my view -- and frankly this even applies for the certs I just referenced -- experience trumps all. If you have the experience, and develop a reputation for your experience/PM capabilities, and if clients recognize this, a cert becomes moot/redundant.
You can certainly pursue it regardless, of course, but nothing beats hands-on/real life experience.
Serious question now. I’ve spent ~8 years managing/leading projects at BCG. No client has ever asked for PMP, no one I know at BCG has PMP, frankly I don’t know if I’ve ever heard it mentioned working at BCG. What do you need it for?
Online classes can get you the training hours pretty easily. There are minimum requirements for years of experience, but they consider lots of things (engineering, sales, etc) project management if you show you were tracking and managing. After that, just the exam!
