Online DBA/PhD Program
#7
I also have to disagree with the assessment of DBA to PhD and not finding a full time teaching gig. We have 2 DBA's on staff in our business school, both earned their doctorates via online learning and I work a large publicly supported university now, where all my degrees, except my undergraduate ones were earned online and I am VP at the same university of the online school.  Before this, I was also a faculty member on a non tenured track. At the same time I have colleagues who earned their PhD's the old fashioned way (brick and mortar, did research, etc) and 2 of them cannot find full time teaching gigs.

The thing to do is review job application requirements. If  a school specifically says they are looking for AACSB accredited degees and you do not have one, you probably will not get that position. On the other hand if a job application is not that specific and just mentions either a DBA and/or PhD then you could probably obtain that job. Nothing is guaranteed of course and there are always other thigngs that will make you stand out as a candidate: having degrees in hard to find business areas such as economics, finance, or accounting; journal articles, research, experience, business certifications, course evaluations from students, etc..
