The MBA as the top management qualification has enjoyed a considerable increase in popularity. However, doubts exist about the accessibility and success of the course for women managers. Describes a research project which aimed to make a comparison of the potential returns of an MBA for men and women. Also aims to explore the barriers which exist for women in the labour market and how far the MBA overcomes these. Based on a sample of 128 male and 55 female students from part‐time courses, looks at management roles, management functions and salary levels. In addition identifies men′s formal and informal networks as a significant barrier. Concludes that the MBA is less successful for women than for men in terms of career advancement and salary levels
