Is My M.C.A valid or Should i opt for another P.G Course ?

Question

Hi Sir/Madam I have completed my m.c.a recently but the problem is - i have joined m.c.a the year 2005 so the m.c.a term is 2005-2008. But due to some personal reasons i couldn't complete it on time. So it delayed 4 years means i have completed it in 2013. So i want to know whether it is valid or not for my software carrier. I am working as an software programmer since 2008 till date in small firm. Can any one please advice me what should i do ??? Should i go with M.B.A or the M.C.A is enough???

Hi According to my view Firstly MBA from distance mode is not useful after doing MCA. Anyway if you are interested to do so then search a reputed university for regular MBA. Secondly If you set your goal/ field to carry on with then opt for certification otherwise go for M.Tech. Thanks

Thanks for the info Nipun Tomar... Now i want to do M.B.A in Distance mode. So my doubt is whether it is useful or not for my carrier. Means if i do m.b.a in distance mode is it an advantage for me ? (or) should of opt for some other courses like M.Tech or microsoft certifications in .net Java like this.... Thanks..

Hi mithya The degree you got is useful or not is totally depends on the company's manager who is going to take your interview. :) Like how will you convince him/her about your degree and clarify that this delay is from your side or from university side. If you succeeded then the job is yours. You have done your MCA from a recognized university(as said by you) that means you have the Master's degree and you are eligible to show that but the thing is the interviewer is going to accept it or not it depends on him/her only on the day of Interview. Thanks

Hi Have you done a distance learning/correspondence course or a regular MCA? And from which university you have done your MCA? B'coz if you have completed your MCA as a distance learning course from a reputed university then yes it is valid but in such type of universities there is also a time limit to complete a degree course like IGNOU provide 6 years to complete MCA degree. Thanks
