My name is Ibrahim Mohamed, I’m a Jordanian professional working in Saudi Arabia as a mechanical engineer with 30 years of experience, currently serving as an executive manager. My colleagues and I—a group of nine from the same company—are taking the MPA together. This is my second semester in the program.
I have a deep passion for learning, and that’s been a major driver in my life. Since graduating, I’ve continually sought out additional training, primarily in-house courses until the COVID-19 pandemic, which moved a lot of education online. Initially, I was hesitant about an online MBA, as it’s not widely recognized in Jordan. However, I had been considering an MBA for years, and a colleague recommended Windsor University after a positive experience here.
For busy professionals, the online format is a fantastic opportunity to continue learning without having to interrupt our careers. It really is possible to pursue advanced degrees like an MBA or even a doctorate if we have the drive to make it happen. With determination, online education offers flexibility we couldn’t get otherwise.
The software for this program is excellent—very intuitive and easy to use. The interactions with professors, both in previous semesters and this one, have been positive, making the overall experience smooth and engaging. The program’s payment methods are very convenient, with no issues at all.
In my first semester, I found the MBA program incredibly helpful in organizing and refining knowledge and experience I already had. Like the PMP certification I completed 17 years ago, this MBA has taken my existing knowledge and organized it in a way that’s easier to apply in the real world. Each semester, I’m learning to streamline and enhance my expertise, and I’m excited to dive into new topics in the upcoming terms.
One of my main responsibilities is managing sales and marketing, and last semester’s focus on these areas was directly relevant to my work. The lessons on ethics also made a strong impact, as they align deeply with my values and beliefs, making my professional approach more structured and principled.
I’m particularly looking forward to the finance and accounting modules, which I know will add even more value to my career. Investing in education is something I deeply believe in, not only for myself but also for my family. It’s a worthwhile investment. This MBA program has already proven to be an enriching journey, and I feel strongly that education is one of the best investments anyone can make.
I would recommend this online MBA program to anyone who faces similar time constraints. It’s my hope that one day online education will gain full acceptance in our region. That said, this MBA is something I’m pursuing for personal growth above all, and Windsor University has provided a meaningful and rewarding experience so far.
If you’re considering advancing your career and education, especially in a flexible online format, this program has a lot to offer.
