A key reason for my interest in the University of Chester was the possibility of advancing my career prospects. The University of Chester is a top-notch school with outstanding facilities and excellent staff to provide employable skills to graduates. Additionally, Chester is an amazing city with a lot of gorgeous buildings, such as Chester Cathedral. Studying in such a historical environment was an adventure worth embarking on.  

I enjoyed studying with smaller class sizes. This allowed me to share my professional experiences and listen and get to know my classmates as well. Studying with students from the diverse geographical and cultural background was rewarding and allowed me to build my global contact list. Studying at Chester Business School improved my ability to diagnose problems and accurately solve them with creativity. It also sharpened my critical thinking abilities as well as my ability to communicate effectively in both oral and written contexts.

My journey with the University of Chester started after realizing that the entry into Chester’s MBA program is a critical success factor in my career progression. In a fast-changing world, businesses are looking for dynamic and energetic professionals who are enthusiastic to handle increasingly responsible positions. The MBA is structured to produce competent and well-rounded individuals with abilities to inspire changes in the workplace. After graduation, I landed three job offers from different internationally reputable companies. Finally, I decided to work for my former company, Ecom Ghana Ltd, in the position of a District Manager. Undoubtedly, the MBA gave me a competitive edge to double my targets in the first six months. I am proud to be a Strategic Manager from Chester Business School.
