Bloomberg training is over. It was surprisingly exhausting. Good news though, I am done being professional developed. For those that may not know, the Walton MBA program requires you to fulfill 48 hours of professional development in order to graduate. I have had trainings in Excel and PowerPoint (super useful), studied negotiations (super interesting) and now have been introduced to a huge list of Bloomberg functions (super useful and just regular interesting).
Choosing between going full-time for a MBA and going part-time was a decision I debated for a long time being entering the program. Eventually, I chose full-time and I believe I made a good decision considering my situation at the time. For anyone else having a rough time making a decision, you should know that if you chose to go part-time, and have to be in class all day one Saturday a month, as bad as that is, you will be well feed. Trust me. The part-timers had class today and me and some fellow full-timers went and raided some of their food spread during a Bloomberg break. They had all kinds of cookies, chips, fruit and other snacks. Ridiculous amounts of food. And coffee. And before that, they had a bunch of BBQ for lunch.
Worst thing about being in a training all day, didn't get to watch the Hog game. Oh well, at least we won.
