what is the difference between PGDIM(Post graduate diploma in management) and MBA is PGDIM is valid in USA.?

We Answered:

I am quoting another answer from Yahoo Answers.

An MBA will enable you to go for higher studies, should you feel like it later on. A PGPM cannot get you into say, a doctoral level programme in management, even if your employer sponsored your higher studies in management. You would not even be eligible to apply. And I don't think you will be able to call yourselves a postgraduate, as you will not have a postgrad degree if you were to enroll for the PGPM. The PGPM is not a degree, it is just a certificate awarded showing that you have successfully completed the Post Graduate Program in Management of that particular institution. I doubt it if it will be recognised abroad, which might prove to be a hindrance for getting plum management postings overseas.

An MBA is awarded by a government recognised university.

Even the IIMs provide only PGPM, as they do not have university status, but I don't really see their graduates getting into Ph.D. / DBA programs abroad. Not that they have to. With the outrageous pay packages offered, one would have to be crazy to leave all that behind to study further. But it is my understanding that even if they wanted to, they couldn't, as they would not meet the minimum eligibility requirements.

Hope I made the difference clear.

What is the scope of pgdm(post graduate diploma in management) as compared to normal mba?

We Answered:

Any course work taken after completion of a bachelor's degree is considered post-graduate. You will find a description of the post graduate diploma in management at this site:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post_Gradua…

The MBA is a master's of business administration and is a DEGREE rather than a diploma, hence it would have been greater in scope than the diploma even before the educational attainment required for the diploma was downgraded.
