Learn all about the pitfalls to avoid in your Master of Business Administration (MBA) project.

Nothing like an MBA to boost your CV and speed up your job search or professional development. However, before embarking on a Master of Business Administration, it is better to anticipate certain pitfalls in order to ensure a good return on investment for your training.

MBA: a strategic choice

A real bet on the professional future, the Master of Business Administration has grown considerably in France in recent years. Currently, a Xerfi-Precepta study lists 277 training programs. However, behind this figure there are many disparities: not all MBAs are equal. To ensure a good return on investment for this diploma, the candidate must keep in mind the objective of the MBA: to prepare for a very senior position combining management and strategy.

Under these conditions, there is no point in embarking on a costly approach at all levels without a career plan that has been carefully thought through and anticipated at 360°. Several questions must be asked: what career prospects immediately after the MBA? What is the objective return on investment in terms of salary? What recognition of this training by recruiters? So many questions that can avoid the trap of an MBA chosen for the wrong reasons, and which will prove to be a disastrous investment, and especially counterproductive.

Wrong reasons to do an MBA

The proliferation of higher MBA courses forces recruiters to make a distinction between the holders of this prestigious diploma, starting with the motivations of each. Here is a list of the worst reasons to start an MBA:

the MBA placebo, in order to escape from a company with an unpleasant climate and unsustainable prospects;
the MBA without any professional experience in a job, at the end of the studies, which indicates a lack of maturity and especially a lack of hindsight concerning the objective of the Master of Business Administration;
the MBA by spite, which is similar to an additional line on the CV without being part of a coherent project;
the MBA “180° turn”, against the current of the previous course and in clear contradiction with the spirit of this diploma, supposed to accompany a career evolution towards general management functions ;
the unrealistic MBA, which thinks it will fill a professional gap but will only succeed in highlighting the inconsistencies of the professional career and its inadequacy with the goals traditionally pursued by this training in top management;
the MBA is unsuited to the professional project, for example in the case of a position requiring no international dimension, and does not justify the financial investment inseparable from the Master of Business Administration.

Persons in the course of a fixed-term contract or former beneficiaries of a fixed-term contract, who have worked for 24 months as employees in the private sector, consecutive or not and all types of contracts combined, during the last 5 years, including 4 months on fixed-term contracts, consecutive or not, during the last 12 months preceding the start of the training in question may benefit from the fixed-term contract CIF. Attention: this 4-month period of fixed-term contracts does not include certain types of contracts: professionalization or apprenticeship contracts, employment support contracts, etc.

Which organization should I contact?
The request for individual training and care leave must be sent at the latest 60 days before the start of the training to the collecting organisation to which the company which employed you on your last fixed-term contract belongs. The employer must give you an individual training access form (BIAF) containing, among other things, these details.

How high is the training supported?
The maximum amount for individual training leave is 18,000 euros excluding tax and 27.45 euros excluding tax per hour.

When does the CIF CDD take place?
The training must start at the latest 12 months after the end of the fixed-term contract which opened the rights to the CIF CDD. However, the employer can accept that the training starts during the CDD.

What duration for CIF CDD and what remuneration?
The training time of an individual training leave may not exceed 1 year full-time or 1 200 hours part-time. The training may not last longer than 3 years. The amount of the remuneration during the training is paid at 80 to 100% of the average salary received during the 4 months of fixed-term contract prior to the entitlement.

What happens after training?
The beneficiary who has reached the end of his CIF CDD and who has not found a job, becomes a job-seeker with the Pôle Emploi on which he depends. The unemployment benefit will be calculated on the basis of the remuneration received at the CIF.

List the various benefits that your company may derive from your training. During the interview with your boss, demonstrate how this paid training will increase your professional efficiency and performance. Tell him how the acquired skills will enable you to take on new missions, develop new projects, attract new customers? Your boss will be more inclined to sign the cheque if he is convinced that there will be a return on investment. “The more your paid training project is in line with the company’s interest, the more likely you are to see it accepted,” says Daniel Croquette, former general delegate of ANDCP. If, on the other hand, you request paid commercial or technical training, and it can save your employer money or increase turnover, you will be listened to more sympathetically.”
