Considering a Master's in Psychology to Boost My BPO Training Career – Is It Worth It?

I am a DGM in training with a BPO and wish to enhance my career. I am planning to pursue a master's in Psychology, but I need advice on whether that would complement my career if I wish to stay in a management role and in the training function. Will this really add value to my profile?

Please advise.

Yes, a Master of Arts in Psychology will help you understand the various aspects of human behavior and dynamics. It is a good choice.

Further Education Recommendations for DGM Training

As a DGM in Training, you can achieve great results by pursuing further education in:

• SAP and related fields
• PG Diploma in Training & Development from ISTD - New Delhi
• NLP
• Hypnotism
• Extra training programs

If you delve into Psychology, your training spirit may be diluted.

You can also opt for MHROD as it has a full unit of Organizational Psychology, and the course is specially structured for HRs and ODs. However, I am not aware of the scope and would like to ask the experts for more information.

Thanks

You should acquire a degree in applied psychology or behavioral science. This will add more strength and sharpen the edge of your profession.

Dear Satish, thank you for your suggestion. I have a BCA from IGNOU in my undergraduate studies. Which university do you recommend for Applied Psychology, and do you suggest pursuing an MA or MSc in this field?
