“Investing in management education for both new and seasoned leaders has not only influenced corporate success, but has contributed to many successful career paths. The MBAUSA programs are high quality, accessible and affordable. That translates into great value.”

– Gary M. Maras,
Chief Executive Officer,
Medicor Associates Inc.

“Everything from the material provided to the instructors was first class. I still find myself referring back to the material with all my notes for direction on situations. The class size was small enough to receive individual attention but large enough to have a diverse range of thoughts and ideas from the others. The instructors were enthusiastic, very professional and kept your interest at all times; you couldn’t ask for anything better.”

— Jack Tomasik,
President,
Signal-Tech

“Soft-skill training is an invaluable component of our leadership development here at Erie Water Works. The programs offered by the MBA and the instructors who provide the training are, bar none, the finest we’ve ever had.”

Human Resources Manager
Erie Water Works

“Whirley DrinkWorks selection for supervisory training is an easy decision — (the) Manufacturer & Business Association. Our past class participants have retained the course material and become better, more informed leaders. Our instructor kept the class interesting, informative and gave real-world scenarios. Classmates bonded and formed their own network to help one another beyond the classroom. Our company, like many others, has unique problems. Our instructor was able to customize the program to suit our needs. We’ve had outside trainers that arrive at the last minute and are unprepared — not the case with Manufacturer & Business Association. There is never a need to ‘sell’ going to class; those teammates that have previously attended do the selling for us!”

— DiAnn Savko
HR Supervisor
Whirley DrinkWorks
