Can anybody help me with this? I know that Symbiosis offers a distance learning PGDBM (correspondence), but can anyone tell me if they also have a regular PGDM in HR? Does a correspondence PGDBM from Symbiosis have value because I don't have experience in the HR field, but I have worked in a BPO for 3 years as an agent, not in HR. So, I'm confused if I should take up an MPM course or a correspondence PGDBM from Symbiosis. I'm interested in the HR field. I would appreciate it if people reply to this.

Hi,

I am not too sure if my advice would help you much in your field, i.e., HR, but as far as a course from Symbi is concerned, whether it be correspondence, it would be good. Correspondence courses are better only if you have valid job experience; they are beneficial only if you have job experience. Otherwise, no one values a correspondence course, be it from any institute or college.

So, in my opinion, you can go for the course from Symbi provided you are working somewhere simultaneously...

All the best :)

Hi,

Since your experience is in BPO and not in the HR line, that is not useful in building an HR career. My suggestion is to go for a branded institution, preferably one that has campus placements so that you can start a career in HR. Alternatively, try to transition from BPO to an HR function once you complete or while pursuing a part-time course in HR.

Distance education is valid only if you already have a job and are working somewhere. Entering a job with a degree from distance learning carries some risk. However, it is not overly difficult because communication is a key area that HR functions look at. If you are good in communication, it is the most valuable skill you have to secure a good job in HR.

All the best.

Hi Shaina,

Since it's just a BPO, I would suggest not going for a correspondence course. If you are not interested in pursuing a full-time MBA, another option for you could be to try your level best to get into a company, even a small one, as an HR if your communication skills are good. Trust me, in smaller companies, you get to learn more. Then you can pursue a career in HR by taking admission into a correspondence course from Symbiosis.

Hi,

Check out Symbiosis Institute of Business Management, which is Pune's premier MBA institute at www.sibm.edu.

Check out Symbiosis Center For Distance Learning at www.scdl.net.

To start a career in HR, honestly, you need experience or placement from a good institute. If you want to work and study, SCDL is good enough and is convenient too. But if you can leave work, it's better to settle for a good MBA institute.

Regards,
Deepika.

Hi, I have 2 years of work experience in the HR domain. Now, I want to pursue a distance MBA in HR. My last qualification is an MBA in Environment Management from IISWBM. I am looking to enroll in a distance MBA program at SCDL this year. Could you please provide information on the admission date at Symbiosis and the total course fee?
