Based on alumni evaluation data, the definitive
online publication for business education news designates the Jack
Welch Management Institute number one in both overall professor
quality and alumni’s ability to apply their academic experience to
their jobs in the 2021 Best Online MBA Programs Ranking
The Jack Welch Management Institute (JWMI) was recognized by
Poets&Quants – the definitive online publication for business
education news – as a top online MBA program for 2021. In
Poets&Quants’ biggest and most competitive ranking to date, the
institute was named 20th overall out of 47 schools, advancing three
spots from last year’s ranking. Among the online MBA subcategories
assessed by alumni, the school ranked first in several academic and
satisfaction measurements, including alumni’s willingness to
recommend JWMI to a friend or colleague, ability to immediately
apply what they learned to their job, and satisfaction with the
asynchronous portion of their MBA program.
Within the same survey, JWMI once again ranked first in overall
quality of faculty and ability to create good connections with
faculty as well as second in overall faculty accessibility and
program flexibility.
“We’re honored to be included in Poets&Quants’ rankings for
the third year in a row alongside so many other excellent
institutions,” said Dean Sippel, CEO of JWMI. “This ranking, which
relies heavily on feedback from our alumni, demonstrates again what
we have always known to be true: JWMI is a proven, one-of-a-kind
program, and our management principles and practices provide our
students with leadership and business skills that change
lives.”
Poets&Quants based its rankings on three core dimensions of
the programs, including: admissions standards, alumni assessment of
their MBA experience, and the career outcomes of the graduates. The
assessment also surveyed recent graduates’ impressions on a range
of topics, such as whether the program fulfilled their expectations
and whether they would recommend it to others. Insights for the
fourth annual Poets&Quants ranking of online MBA programs are
derived from self-reported school data and 1,143 alumni survey
responses gathered between May and October of 2020, from the 47
participating institutions.
Other schools’ online MBA programs included in the list were
Indiana University (Kelley), Carnegie Mellon University (Tepper),
University of Southern California (Marshall), George Washington
University and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
(Kenan-Flagler).
Last year, the Jack Welch Management Institute (JWMI) was ranked
23rd on Poets & Quants 2020 Best Online Programs list. The Jack
Welch MBA has also been highly ranked as a top online MBA program
by The Princeton Review and CEO Magazine.
Since becoming part of Strayer University in 2012, JWMI has

the renowned CEO and business icon, the late Jack Welch, JWMI was
