Is an MBA the right direction to take?

“I say that he is old because he really connects better with people that are at least a generation older than himself. He does not connect well with people his own age.”

That’s a good thing in the workforce. So why doesn’t he just job hunt and research industries?

“The program he is looking at is a 3 semester sustainability program. It is not a traditional MBA and it is not with a high ranking school.”

Why that one instead of a non-MBA sustainability program?
