The guide provides essential information about program formats, tuition, scholarships, and support resources, making it easier for working adults to plan their academic journey

"We know working adults are looking for programs that fit their lives and help them advance in meaningful ways,” said University of Phoenix Associate Provost Christina Neider, Ed.D. “This guide is designed to make those choices clearer and to highlight how our master’s programs integrate career-relevant skills throughout the curriculum. It’s about equipping students with the knowledge and tools they need to pursue their goals with confidence.”

The guide outlines two flexible learning formats:

• Standard master’s programs, where students take one six-week course at a time and can graduate in as little as 16 to 37 months.

• Competency-based (CB) programs, including Master of Business Administration (MBA-CB),��Master of Information Systems (MIS-CB), and Master of Health Administration (MHA-CB), which allow experienced professionals to complete their degree in less than a year through self-paced, faculty-supported learning. For example, the Master of Business Administration–CB is designed so it can be completed in under a year and for less than $11,000.
