Yes, getting it is a no brainer if it is such few classes and from a top 20 school.

She will likely want to leave the B4 one day and it will check boxes that are required on basically all director level and up roles at any large company. She won't get much value out of the MBA if she stays in B4 but it never hurts to learn new things.

She should try to take as many classes that are NOT Accounting and Finance as possible. As much exposure in customer analytics, marketing, strategy, operations, and human resource management as possible will round out her skill set.

I'm trying to figure out which school this is...

I assume she would be going on evenings on weekends if she is staying at work. You also mentioned Top 20 which means it is likely a program on the 15-25 range.

NYU has an evening program.
Darden doesn't offer any working programs
Ross is more like Top 10
Goizueta (sp?) Emory may have a working program but I don't remember
McCombs only has lock step programs
Fuqua only has its cross continent program
My guess in Kenan-Flagler's online program?
