Need Suggestion about courses

I am working in an IT company for last 7 years. I got the job thru campus and have never though of going out of it for any reason in last 7 years. Now I am taking a break of 1 year for a reason and will be staying home for most of the time. I want to utilize the time properly and truly speaking I am scare how I will be able to spend such a long time staying in home sitting ideally. So I am thinking about going for some online/correspondence courses which I can complete in 1 year. And the best option I think is MBA rather than going for few certifications in oracle/sap which I already have. What you all feel and suggest. Is it worth doing? I don’t want to take a course and then after 1 year regret about it, thinking that I have lost 1 year of my precious of life.

Don’t think a

Don’t think a correspondence MBA course after 7 years of work ex in a TOP IT company is of much value. In fact none of the top B school has any such course, what they offer is evening/online course. The later being is very new to India. If I was in your situation then I would have take that leave to do few certifications – be it in manufacturing field or IT related. Even After so much MBA hype in India we all know how it to be the top techie guy in a company.
