How is the PGPBA course (for business analytics) from Great lakes, Gurgaon? Is doing a course or certification helpful for career profile change?

BB

Analytics is the science of extracting insights from sets of raw data using statistics and Business Analytics used by committed organizations to the data-fueled decision-making process.

You will explore data to find new patterns and relationships between different variables with the help of statistical excavation and structuring by quantitative analysis. Then you will predict the results by predictive modeling and predictive analytics.

PGPBA is a course for executives hence it is scheduled on weekends. It doesn't offer any placement assistance either. But if you're truly inclined, it'll be more like an added skill on your resume. Your excellence with this degree will depend on your work experience and your chosen domain in analytics.

The Business Analytics program is much better than the executive course and if you go for a full-time one, then it'll be even better for your career prospects. Also, Great Lakes does have a good national reputation and the faculty and the syllabus would be the same at all the centers.

This one year Pune PGPBA is a full-time course and part of SCMHRD. You will get a lot of hands-on experience on various processes linked with Marketing, Operations, Risk, Human Resources, Finance, Digital Marketing, and Hadoop.

Choice between Great Lakes PGPBA and IIM Calcutta EPBA. Which one to choose?

AN
Anirudha Nataraja Posted On : December 9th, 2022
MBA in Marketing, Indian Institute of Management Calcutta (Graduated 2020)

The BA course has been recently initiated at both institutes. Without second thoughts, Great Lakes has top-notch faculty who handle the courses meticulously. But the competitor IIM Calcutta makes the discussion more difficult.

The only difference between the two courses is that IIM Calcutta has probably started the BA course because of its flagship PGPM program under the IIMC brand. Whereas Great Lakes BA is another flagship program. So the focus might be better.

Choose IIM Calcutta if you are willing to attach yourself to its brand name for the rest of your life.
