Carol's Scholarship & MBAe
Sparks Post-Retirement Startup
The Challenge:
A decade into retirement, Carol’s days revolved around
caring for her two beloved adopted grandchildren as a single parent. As they
grew older, she found herself with more time on her hands and a growing
interest in returning to business even though she was about to turn 70. Could she
pursue her newfound passion and start a new chapter in her life, despite
societal prejudices against older entrepreneurs?
The Customized Solution:
Carol applied for and secured a scholarship to take MBA
courses at Scott Galloway’s Section School. She enthusiastically tackled
modules from global faculty, learning alongside rising entrepreneurs a third her
age. Through course projects, Carol refined her startup idea into a polished
business plan and completed most of Section’s certification programs, courses
and a mini-MBA in artificial intelligence and another mini-MBA in marketing.
Carol’s Results with our Prestigious MBA Certification:
Earned her elite MBA designation from the MBA Standards Board in just 14 months, validating her capabilities and overcoming ageism barriers.
Launched a venture-backed company that is growing rapidly, with forecasts that may enable her to realize needed college savings for her teen grandchildren.
Gained the confidence and credibility to secure investor funding and pitch meetings, despite prior initial cancellations due to age bias.
Achieved her business dreams, once considered implausible as a senior living on a low budget retirement income with two young children.
Saved over $70,000 compared to traditional MBA programs she had considered. (Total Cost including MBA Board Certification Enrollment fee, MBA Professional Association membership, and required MBA courses which were on her 2 year scholarship was only $490.)
The Bottom Line:
The MBA Standards Board empowered Carol to pursue her
passion and start a new chapter in her life. By leveraging her MBA education
with our customized curriculum, Carol overcame societal prejudices and
achieved her entrepreneurial dreams, proving that it’s never too late to learn,
build, and realize your full potential.

Disclosure: At the MBA Standards Board, we prioritize the privacy and security of our enrollees and MBA certified professionals.
In today’s digital age, protecting personal information online is more important than ever. Sharing real names, photos, or other identifying details on the internet can potentially lead to serious negative consequences, such as doxing, harassment, identity theft, or even physical threats. Doxing, the malicious act of publicly revealing someone’s private information online can result in reputational damage, emotional distress, and compromised personal safety.
To safeguard our community from these risks, we have made the conscious choice to feature fictional profiles and testimonials on our website and marketing materials.
This allows us to showcase the diverse backgrounds and accomplishments of our enrollees and alumni, while ensuring their privacy remains intact.
By using representative stories and personas, we can celebrate their successes without exposing them to unnecessary online dangers.
In a world where digital privacy is increasingly under threat, we believe this approach strikes the right balance between maintaining transparency and protecting the individuals who have placed their trust in the MBA Standards Board.
