ThePowerMba Opinions

The first search we will do will be on Facebook. We are going to see what opinions users have expressed on social networks. We observe that among 200 opinions, they have obtained a remarkable 4.6 out of 5, which is very good. In general the tone of the opinions are positive in terms of training.

Dubious practices

In their eagerness to show Social Proof and demonstrate their great staff of teachers, they have certainly engaged in practices that at least require revision. Recently, on twitter, Carlos Sánchez, has had to clarify that he does not belong in any way to the staff of ThePowerMBA.

Is ThePowerMBA a scam?

Many people in social networks has issued negative comments on social networks. Many disbelieve the benefits of the program and consider that including the word MBA is misleading, since a traditional MBA can cost several thousand euros and also issues a valid degree recognized by the market and educational system (which ThePowerMBA does not). Despite this, "MBA" is a free word and its use is not regulated. In addition, the promise is clear, access training for 500 euros. If you pay, you agree. There is no cheating or scam. Then, it is up to each one to assess whether the educational "value" received is worth the price paid.

Structure of ThePower MBA Marketing Master

Have 250 general classes and 150 generic classes of approximately 15 minutes, which delves into different areas, such as SEO, Social Media, advertising, analytics, and so on.

Obviously, it presents a broad approach towards business. So the examples and their subjects are mainly focused on business experiences of success and some other failure.

Forbes

At the advertising and promotion level, we cannot deny the presence in the media that this master has. We have been able to observe the outstanding landing page that this training has in the specialized medium, Forbes. This kind of agreement or alliance between ThepowerMba and Forbes , shows us that it is a serial project with a long-term perspective. Size of exposure and publicity cannot be left aside when evaluating whether a master's degree is serious or not.

Regarding social proof, we continue to see articles published in reputable media such as elcofidencial.com

Job vacancy

Without a doubt, when it comes to training, in addition to cultivating intelligence and developing the ability to respond to problems, we also value the economic issue. This implies that in addition to receiving a quality education we can also find a suitable job. The Power MBA has implemented a platform where hundreds of job searches are available. This is a very interesting incentive as it increases the employability of its graduates and ensures a kind of "passive promotion" of their master's degree. This job bank counts momentarily with only 24 job offers, which makes us see that it still lacks a journey and can be a barrier for many interested parties.

Is it advisable to do this Master?

It certainly does not replace a traditional master's degree. ThePowerMBA is more based on the experience of its professors than on business theory. That is, it will be difficult to see the founder of the aforementioned companies, talking about, for example, how to do the valuation of a business in the same way that Aswath Damodaran would. What is valuable in this type of training is listening to those who have put their business ideas into practice and have succeeded (and also those who have failed). Therefore, we recommend this training to those who have already done some kind of specialization in business.
