I am currently working as a Graduate Engineer Trainee at Neo Structo Construction Pvt Ltd. I am seeking better career growth in the most effective way possible. Currently, I am working in the quality department of a piping project.
Courses Under Consideration
I am considering pursuing one of the following courses and would appreciate your suggestions with some explanations on which one or which combinations would be most beneficial, as well as the ideal timing for undertaking them:
1. NDT Level I & II certification
2. BSI certification as an ISO 9001 auditor
3. MBA distance learning in supply chain management from Symbiosis
4. M.Tech in Quality Engineering from the Institute of Engineers (India)
Please provide some advice, as I am keen on avoiding frequent job changes. Does only experience matter, or does distance education also hold value?
Thank you.

At the outset, let me confess that I am not qualified to suggest the educational degree that you need to pursue, so I shall not comment on that aspect of your query. However, I would like to first compliment you on being very clear about your professional aspirations, for having identified some suitable options, and for taking the initiative to share your thoughts and seek professional help. You have, therefore, imbibed a very critical success attribute - taking initiative. You have also displayed professional ethics in stating that you don't want to change jobs frequently. By breaking down your query into various parts and outlining specific queries, you have also assimilated the essence of problem-solving.
Let me also share my thoughts on your last two questions.
There is no equivalent substitute for experience, and that will always be the bedrock of professional growth. The trick is to diversify your experience and marry it with vision and administrative astuteness. Professional courses would always add value to your knowledge, help you update yourself, and perhaps also open your eyes to the dramatic changes happening in the profession. I would urge you to go for refresher courses and/or relevant technical courses to ensure you are ahead of your peers academically as well as in having updated knowledge.
Personally, I think you are already far ahead of your peers in your quest for professional excellence and career success. Hopefully, some more qualified respondents will guide you and give you the right advice on your more specific queries above.
My best wishes to you.
