I would have never been able to quit my job to enroll in school. That was not an option because I’m a breadwinner in my household. Having the opportunity to keep my job and continue to work, and to work around my schedule as a full-time employee and a mother of a toddler was really the icing on top.

Monica Tinajero | MBA

Before, I was stuck in the process. Now I have the larger picture. I am more well-rounded. I would like to move to a management/leadership position and working on my MBA has made me better candidate.

Sandra W. | MBA Program

I thought going into my MBA it would reinforce things I had already learned, but it also opened up new ways of thinking.

Alice C. | MBA Program

Obtaining an MBA always was on my bucket list, however, until I found Brandman* I was facing large loans and a strict school regiment. The flexibility of the program, along with Kia’s tuition assistance, made the perfect combination. An MBA gave me the self-confidence to trust my ideas and question conventional thinking.
