MBA with B.Ed is an odd combination. If you are interested in teaching line, pursue B.Ed. regards R.Ponraj

Actually, the thing is I have worked for an HR consultancy for 5 months, and it's very tiring working for 10 hours and still getting only 6 to 8k per month. I stay very far from town, so much time is consumed in traveling.

So, I feel I should do a B.Ed and teach in any school nearby to my place. Working hours will be reduced by 50%, and the salary might also be the same as I get or more than this, I suppose. But do people do a B.Ed after an MBA, or am I the only one who wants to do it?

Dear "The Cute" person of this universe,

I want to answer your cute question.

Firstly, I want to assert the wisdom note again that every work will be tiring if you would be doing it for remuneration, especially in monetary terms. Moreover, you have worked for only a brief time span, particularly in an HR consultancy. It may be possible that they did not offer you a holistic profile that you might have dreamt of before opting for an MBA. If you selected a career after careful consideration, reaching a conclusion that it is the wrong career in such a short period is not advisable. You might find the teaching profile equally tiring after transitioning into it.

It is also possible that employers might find it confusing if you change career paths too early due to hasty decisions. Additionally, the profile you are referring to seems to be a recruiter position (I am just guessing), and the reality nowadays regarding such jobs is that people in this profile often do not meet industry standards and are employed for low-cost workforce by numerous consultancies.

I suggest that you first seek a core HR job without focusing solely on salary. Your concern regarding salary may stem from having high dreams or unrealistic expectations about the job market. Analyze the job based on parameters related to job satisfaction, growth prospects, your position after five years, etc.

A friend has suggested pursuing SAP in one of the previous posts, which you may not be familiar with. Therefore, it is essential to research SAP before considering it. I agree with the friend that SAP offers great prospects, but it is crucial to evaluate your capabilities and interests.

There are alternative options to a teaching profile; for example, college teaching may be a better fit if you are willing to face the NET and seek more lucrative job prospects. You could also consider PSU jobs if you believe you are suitable for national-level competition and prepare accordingly.

Have you considered how good a Banking Competition might be, especially considering you mentioned working for about 8 hours? With self-discipline and dedication, your efforts can lead to remarkable outcomes.

If you have decided to pursue an Intermediate teacher profile or something similar, consider obtaining a B.Ed. degree. However, think carefully before committing. As an old movie song goes, "mar jaayenge......... mit jaayenge............ kaam koi kar jaayenge, marr k bhi jo chain na mila to jaayenge yaron kanha."

Before giving up, I recommend exploring opportunities in HR training-cum-placement agencies; it might work for you. Remember, the field requires resilience, so think twice before making a decision.

All the best,
With regards,
Shivendra

Hi Cute,

SAP HR is an ERP but far exhaustive, so the high cost is, in my view, reasonable. It has 74 modules in all, and the HR module is one of these. It is real-time software to manage and promote the organization.

There are three profiles you can work in after being certified: implementation, support, and end-user profile. Only Siemens and Genovate are authorized to certify you in India, and the eligibility for this is corporate experience of 2+ years.

As far as career prospects go, it is great, a green field. Although there are agencies providing SAP training for certification, which may be enough for local-level recognition but not for dream assignments. I agree that compared to the fees around four lacs, if they are charging thirty to thirty-five thousand (much comparable to the cost you would have to incur in B.Ed.), they would be providing you a foothold reasonably in this field. Further, you can go for certification.

Those who do not have 2+ years of experience would not be considered by the mentioned agencies above, but after taking SAP training from local agencies, at least, they may be considered good enough to get a position in SAP requirements.

One thing I want to make clear is that SAP is about technical expertise related to the installation and maintenance of software in specific business activity fields such as HR, Finance, Marketing, Logistics, Inventory, etc. Domain knowledge is required to customize the software as per the requirements and policies of the organization where you would be working as an SAP expert.

With regards,

Shivendra

I think you are taking it very easy again. It's not that kind of installation, my dear. It is more like imparting expertise of the SAP module coupled with domain knowledge of your specialization. Being from a software background, were you thinking of a B.Ed.? Anyways, I think your background seems good, and you are really not getting a pay up to your qualification.

I think a face-to-face consultation with an expert of SAP, if you opt for it openly, will be of great help. Owing to your background, you can also consider exploring other modules such as ABAP.

Hi Cute,

Good morning.

SAP is not a course that universities offer, so each time you pursue it, you have to rely on agencies. This applies even for its world certification from Siemens or Genovate; these companies have institute status recognized by SAP Germany, the original governing body.

In the industry, you will eventually realize that there is ample space for your passion to drive your success. It's crucial to trust in yourself rather than relying solely on others, whether they are individuals, institutions, colleges, or others. You are the one who can truly make a difference, not the college. Why limit your trust to colleges and not consider institutes?

Colleges are not obligated to cater to your needs. Institutes can often offer more value than colleges. This is a moment for your entrepreneurial spirit to extract the most valuable insights from your surroundings. It's not just about routine work.

For institutes in Mumbai, search online.

All the best.

Hi Cute,

Try to be worthy of your assumed name "Cute Universe." Why are you considering pursuing a B.Ed after completing an MBA? If your goal is to enter the teaching profession, why limit yourself to becoming a school teacher post B.Ed, or even after M.Ed?

Consider aiming higher, such as becoming a college or university professor. With a Master's degree, why not pursue a PhD in Education? You could also explore opportunities to become a professor in a management school.

Hi,

I am a Lecturer at a B.Ed college, and there are many students who pursue B.Ed after an MBA. However, one should do B.Ed if they genuinely want to teach, not just because they have fewer working hours. Every field has its own positives and negatives. It isn't a cakewalk; one has to work hard. It is a one-year hands-on experience that keeps you on your toes.

Before you decide, all I can say is do what you love to do because "Work lovingly done is the hallmark of a life wisely and effectively led."

Thank you all for your suggestions.

Hi Arpeeta,

Yes, I feel I will be very comfortable in dealing with students and teaching them those subjects. I like the school environment - everything is punctual and systematic. Also, being a woman, I will have time to look after my home, and I can continue this profession for years. However, I am still confused because it's a big diversion from MBA to B.Ed.

B.Ed after MBA.......hmmm doesn't sound sensible, but then we should not care, right? If you feel that HR job is difficult and time-consuming, go for teaching. Absolutely no problem. But then, why B.Ed??? You can teach MBA subjects... I myself do teach MBA students so hardly matters, dear. But then do remember that after a couple of years of experience, you will get a promotion and will get a good salary too as HR... choice is yours.

My dear, appearances can be deceptive. You need to learn from scratch to get systematic things done. Like all other worlds, given the changing trends, there are no fixed timings to go back home. You will also have to look out for the subjects you would want to opt for. There could be one good option: after B.Ed, you can teach in a Junior college or opt for international schools where you would get a decent pay package. Additionally, you could choose to teach management subjects and with a few years of experience (you can go for NET in the meanwhile as well), and then opt for teaching in a college.

You are considering the holidays these jobs offer, but do consider your interest and all things associated with the career. You still have time to think about it. B.Ed admission process usually begins in January. Best of luck!

I think if you are passionate about teaching children, then go ahead. Moreover, there are numerous occasions when you will be assigned administrative tasks in the school routine. In such cases, your MBA/HR background will be an advantage. As you gain more experience and become due for promotion to the grade of Vice Principal/Principal, the MBA degree will be helpful.

Yes, this is exactly what's going on in my mind. I feel I will be good in teaching school children. Also, I can indulge in many activities in schools and use my management skills over there. It will be beneficial for the school, for the children, and I will also be satisfied with my work.

After B.Ed., you should try and give exams to opt for teaching in a government school. The starting salary they offer is 30k gross, which is 26.5k in hand per month. Government school timings are from 7:30 am to 12:30 pm. That's it! So, try to do your B.Ed. from MDU, Rohtak, and appear for government exams.

Hi, I also completed my M.B.A. (H.R). I joined a pharmaceutical company as an HR Executive. I am interested in teaching, so I decided to train students whenever I am free. Regarding your case, please think about your interest area. You completed M.B.A. (H.R.), so the best suggestion is to teach MBA students if you are that interested in the teaching field. SAP is an excellent career for any aspiring student. Before opting for that, learn about SAP and gather some data to make a decision. B.Ed. is not suitable for you; otherwise, try for core HR jobs in your area. You can create wonders. ALL THE BEST. Keep Rocking!

Think hard, think a hundred times, think long term, and consult only those who have at least 5-10 years of experience in a particular profession/field before making any decision.

It seems to me that you have not followed the above steps while deciding to go for MBA-HR. Do not repeat the same mistake again.

Do not look at things in a superficial way. Today, you find school teachers' working hours very attractive. However, working hours are only one aspect of a job and career. Tomorrow, you may discover other drawbacks and shortcomings in that profession as well. Don't wait for tomorrow; do all the discoveries and research today itself; after all, it is a matter of your career and life.

All jobs and careers will have some positives and negatives, and you will have to accept both and take them in your stride.

To become a high school teacher, you will have to do a B.Ed. To become a teacher for an MBA, you are technically eligible now, but no institute will accept you right away since you neither have industry experience nor teaching experience. In case you get an entry for MBA teaching, you can go for a Ph.D. while continuing with teaching; there is no need to hurry for a Ph.D. now.

As per my knowledge, for proceeding with the teaching stream after MBA qualifications, the NET/SET exams will help you. With an MBA and clearance of the NET/SET exam, you can become a professor in colleges or even deliver lectures part-time. For example, you can work in the core HR field and give lectures at colleges on weekends. This way, both your qualifications and interests would be utilized.

Currently, I am studying MBA (Operations) and attend lectures on Sundays. The HR and Marketing teacher for us is a person who is currently working with Air India. Do consult with such individuals to guide you on your path.

Actually, these job timings are not suiting me, yar... 10 to 7... 9 hours... it's affecting my health very badly.

How about becoming a full-time school teacher and a visiting faculty in an MBA college? And when I get enough experience, I will become a full-time MBA professor and also do a Ph.D.

I also agree with "calligrapher11" - Shivendra.

At a fresher level, everyone gets a junior-level job which is very tiring. I would suggest two things: 1) either change your current job because normal working hours are 9 hours, and there are many good consultancies that do not have a work burden, or 2) stay in the current job for the next 6 to 8 months and then look for a corporate opening either as a recruiter or in a generalist profile.

But don't change your profile to teaching unless you really want to be a teacher. If you are changing your profile just because of tiresome work and money, then I assure you things will change once you have some experience to show to get another opening. Also, keep on taking advice from your friends on your current condition; that will help you.

SET/NET are difficult, but I have cleared the NET exam, and I can tell you if you work hard with dedication, then you can clear it. Get the books and start studying. If you can present your content systematically and precisely, trust me, you can clear it. Being an average or above-average student won't matter. Good preparation and presentation are all that matter for NET/SET. Also, 1% of luck!!

But then, you know the famous saying, "Success is 99% hard work and 1% luck!" Best wishes, Arpeeta
