[Metadata
Will the meta description be the same as the programme introduction above? (Boost your professional performance and expand your career opportunities with an internationally recognised MBA programme that you can study while you work.)]
[NB1]Found on the Canterbury MBA pages. Can’t link to the original because you need to be logged in. Could link to this page maybe though it doesn’t look especially reputable http://www.allaboutcareers.com/careers-advice/postgraduate-study/what-is-an-mba. I've registered and confirmed that the publication does include those stats.
[NB2]This element could be used as the basis for a comparison tool/table. Currently the at-a-glance element mixes information that is just for the full MBA and information that covers the whole 'family'. We'll need to resolve this. Should we do the At a glance at 'family' level of qualification level? Can we isolate at-a-glance elements that will span all qualifications in a family and have those at family level, and then the ones that vary at qualification level?
[NB3]16xcourses @ $2434.20 each. Maybe too much content for at-a-glance?
[NB4]Is this suited to the at a glance section? What are our criteria (apart from being key information students need to make decisions)? Controlled vocabularies/limited need for free text???
[NB5]Could we have a controlled vocab for this ‘composition’ content?
[NB6]Delivery method
[NB7]Move to requirements? Also, this is for the full MBA.
[NB8]Based on no evidence whatsoever, I think PG students would be interested in this on the card – this in the at-a-glance section – it would be a way of showing something about the family too.
[NB9]I don’t think this is needed. Doesn’t mean we can’t use the term though.
[NB10]This link assumes we redirect to the new MBA page and that this has the PD contact details on it
[NB11]The term ‘elective’ is used to mean something different in the rest of our content: “Any course from this university including those listed from other degrees”
[NB12]Charlotte told me she gets lots of questions about this. From school site. Could leave there and link to it.
[NB13]Found on the Canterbury MBA pages. Can’t link to the original because you need to be logged in. Could link to this page maybe http://www.allaboutcareers.com/careers-advice/postgraduate-study/what-is-an-mba
[NB14]Could override a standard Leads to heading
[NB15]Is this needed given most people are Vic returnees? We could have it as an optional standard block if people turn on International. This wouldn’t capture kiwi students from other Unis though.
