hello John,

first of all congratulations that you have decided to pursue a career of your interest   now lets see the similarity between an MBA and PGDM

The MBA and PGDM do not differ when it comes to acceptance in the industry or for higher studies.

Both programs teach management skills, and it’s the quality of education imparted by the b-school, its unique value propositions, track record of its alumni and the value that the graduates bring to the table that matter to recruiters. In fact, in b-schools offering a one year ‘certificate’ program in management, also called PGPM or PGP or other names depending on the b-school, recruiters do not even differentiate between these students and the PGDM students. Hiring is done purely on the basis of work experience, background and skill requirements of the recruiter and how the students fit their criteria.

lets see the difference,

Business schools (or private MBA colleges) offering PGDM can revise their curriculum in response to changing business needs and industry behavior. They can quickly adapt new models, tools and technologies to deliver cutting edge education to their students. Universities undergo such revision in a time-based manner, mostly in 3 to 5 years.

Private b-schools offering PGDM courses can also benefit students by inviting visiting faculty from around the world for an enhanced learning experience. In addition to these, business schools that especially offer an on-campus PGDM program also focus on overall development of students through soft-skill and leadership based courses and activities, extra-curriculars and an intense industry interaction through guest lectures.

If you are looking forward to investing two years of their life in any of these highly indulging programs, you must completely understand their value propositions, offerings and industry perception before making any decision.
