MANAGERS at local firms can take on a part-time business course at Essex University from the autumn.

The Essex Business School’s part-time MBA course allows business executives unable to commit to full-time study but keen to develop their skills to gain a qualification.

The programme can be tailored to accommodate their work and family life commitments studying over two years rather than the usual one, while locally-based managers can enrol on a modular MBA allowing them to complete the course in a minimum of three and a maximum of six years.
