Business Accreditation
AACSB Accreditation Overview
AACSB accreditation helps business schools hold themselves accountable for improving business practice through a commitment to strategic management, learner success, thought leadership, and societal impact.
Development of Standards and Processes
The guiding principles and standards are principles-based and outcomes-focused and affirm AACSB’s commitment to having the world’s highest standard of quality in business education.
AACSB has continued to revise its business accreditation standards to improve relevancy, maintain currency, and increase value. An appointed Business Accreditation Task Force, with widespread input from member schools, developed the current business standards, which were adopted by the AACSB Accreditation Council in July 2020.
The standards also place greater emphasis on diversity and inclusion, which are embedded throughout the standards and enable business schools to demonstrate impact in this area in a variety of ways, according to their contexts.
