What is Business School?
A business school is a school that is specialised in the imparting of knowledge as regards business or its sub-branches. These schools often offer several types of business programs that relate to business which a person can choose based on the student's choice of career. A business school can operate on its own or it can be a sub-school within another school.

What is MBA?
To improve and polish the necessary skills for a career in business management, an internationally approved and accepted degree such as the Master of Business Administration also know as MBA. Nevertheless, an MBA degree is not only a valuable degree for those who have a career in the business field, but it is also for people who have a managerial career or role in the public sector or another field of study. Overall, an average of six out of ten MBA course outline consists of four basic managerial subjects which are: economics, operation, accounting, and marketing. Furthermore, to enable students outside the business world who aim to have the degree for a particular reason wield it efficiently, other subjects from other fields have been added to the elective courses for an MBA program. In addition to all these, some schools have made a provision that requires a candidate to go through an internship at an organisation or a company in other to pave way for students to get immediate job opportunities after the program. In our world today, one of the most celebrated professional degree programs is the Masters of Business Administration. Worldwide, more than two thousand five hundred Masters of Business Administration programs are offered in the English language. MBA was first introduced towards the end of the twenty-first century at universities located in the United States, and now it is being modified regularly to keep up with modern day demands.

What is Mini MBA?
Management courses in the MBA program that demands the student to study for less than four hundred hours or less are commonly referred to as Mini MBA. However different institutions have different time duration set for these courses ranging from thorough weekly sessions, classes that last for more than a month, to Online classes. Since there are a lot of options to choose from, students who desire to obtain the degree just have to apply to an institution that offers a program that fits their schedule. Often, the students that apply for the Mini MBA are people who find themselves in a top or middle management position and do not have sufficient or any background in business management. This is because people in this category usually seek a higher knowledge in business concept as it not only take them to a different and better level in their career but it also opens their eyes to better opportunities and equip them with all necessities required to build a business plan that is solid and that increases the turnover rate and productivity of the business.
