I have been accepted into both the LSUS and La Tech online MBA programs, looking for input on both these programs, which one would you take? Which one gives me a shot of getting into a DBA program down the road.... Also I have noticed LSUS has a great deal on non native English speaking professors, should I be concerned?
I look forward to your input.

I have no direct experience with either school. I do have a friend who graduated with her MBA from LSUS and she had only good things to say. There is also an active Facebook group for LSUS MBA students.

I've never seen anyone call LSU Shreveport LSUS before. Never heard of La Tech either. Wasn't sure if it was in LA or Lousiana.

Thanks.

Moodle is VERY dated. It's not as user friendly as Canvas and Blackboard. I've used all 3 learning platforms and Strut over the last year and Moodle is by the worst one. It feels very 90's. It doesn't have an aesthetic that is easy to stare at and read for hours. Submitting documents through it can be challenging. Half the time they don't go through. It's like it was designed and forgotten about.

I don’t have any experience with any other platform other than moodle. I’ve not had any issues with it.
