　　"More and more people are used to being online and expect, in some ways, to be educated online," said John Colley, associate dean in charge of the MBA at the University of Warwick.
　　华威商学院负责MBA的副院长约翰·科利表示；“越来越多的人习惯上网并期待以某种方式接受在线教育。”

　　Imperial College Business School launched its fully4 online global MBA (GMBA) in January 2015. Now, with 220 students enrolled5, it is the London school's biggest course. Most GMBA students would not consider a conventional MBA, says David Lefevre, director of Imperial's Edtech Lab.
　　2015年1月，帝国理工商学院推出了完全在线的全球MBA(GMBA)课程。如今该课程有220名注册学生，是这家位于伦敦的商学院人数最多的课程。帝国理工商学院教育技术实验室主任戴维·勒费夫尔表示，GMBA的多数学生不会考虑传统MBA。
　　"There is a growing proportion of MBA students who routinely work and collaborate6 online and across time zones," he says. "To these students, the blended approach is completely natural and it is the value of the purely7 face-to-face traditional MBA format8 that needs explaining."
　　“越来越多的MBA学生常常跨越时区、在网上学习和协作，”他称，“对于这些学生来说，这种混合式方法的好处是不言而喻的，需要解释一下的反而是纯面对面式传统MBA价值何在。”
