Stuck for 10 years with 17 years exp and 30 lakh package - will an IIM Indore MMS help reach higher levels?

Ans: Part time MBA do not get placements from college. So they end up searching for the jobs on their own. Corporates would not consider it on par with normal MBA, unless you already have good relevant experience.

Ans: I dont believe the course provides placement opportunities. It is a good course to get an IIM Tag but may not be able to boost your package in the short run. It most likely will help in the long run. Changing domain also could not be easy as any company you apply to will ask for relevant work ex.

Ans: If the company sponsors you then you can go (even being in a state of without pay). But don't leave the job for this purpose. Best of luck. Professor..................................................................:)
