MS BI Professional Certifications Alternative to GMAT/GRE
Why Professional Certifications? • Dean has already reviewed our proposal and AACSB allows certifications as an alternative to GMAT/GRE • Certifications are not considered to be surrogates for the GMAT/GRE • Rather they are like the CPA and CFP exams to the accounting and finance departments. • All MS BI courses are now offered by DSS only • Certifications/exams are domain specific and hence relevant performance indicators for an MS BI program applicant, and not appropriate for an MBA applicant or other MS student. • We seek to more than satisfy AACSB requirements; each certification is reviewed by our entire department and agreed upon as an effective measure. If we find any certification to be questionable in nature, we do not include it on our list. • We do not accept vendor- or –product specific certifications • i.e., from Microsoft, Cisco, Oracle, SAP
Professional Certifications*for MS BI *CPA, CFP also accepted
