Our Accomplishments

Dual Accreditation

AACSB accredited members share a common purpose – preparing learners for meaningful lives. AACSB values and celebrates diversity among its membership while providing a platform to foster engagement and accelerate innovation. Business schools holding AACSB accreditation hold themselves to a standard of excellence and commitment to societal impact, strategic management, and learner success and leadership.

AACSB offers a supplemental accounting accreditation for schools interested in an elevated quality assurance system for their accounting programs. To achieve AACSB Accounting Accreditation, an institution must first—or simultaneously—pursue AACSB Business Accreditation. In addition to meeting the nine business accreditation standards, the school must also fulfill the criteria for the six accounting accreditation standards, which are specific to the discipline and profession of accounting.

The accreditation process includes self-evaluations, the development of in-depth strategic plans, and peer and committee reviews. Once achieved, schools must undergo a continuous improvement review every five years to ensure they are evolving and improving over time.
