HRDC reviewed down the refund value to 40% of tuition fees from Jan 2010… Still, I’m going to get about Rs 30k which I can use to fund next year’s fees

There’s a new most affordable university now. Birla Institute of Technology is giving their Executive MBA course at only 56k/year (make 112k for 2 years – 50% less than UOM). Now they sure are a big name in the IT field, but as far as management is concerned, does anyone know?

Say 20% off a 300-400k course can be as much as 80k!

Guess what I just found out, postgraduate courses are up to 20% refundable by the HRDC. That means that MBA courses that are recognised by the Tertiary Education Commission (TEC) are eligible for that 20% refund after 6 months, provided that the company where you’re working at contributes for the HRDC Levy. Well, it’s not for everyone, but at least those lucky few can benefit from that.

Yeah I think this will be a good incentive for people to get into career and skills development.
