Confirming Global Quality and Distinction in Business Education

Ó£ÌÒµ¼º½ announces 19 business schools have extended their global accreditation in business and/or accounting, and one business school has achieved initial accreditation.

Tampa, Fla., USA (November 14, 2024)—Ó£ÌÒµ¼º½ International (Ó£ÌÒµ¼º½) announces today that 19 business schools have extended their accreditation in business, and one school has achieved initial accreditation.

For more than a century, Ó£ÌÒµ¼º½ accreditation has been synonymous with the highest standards in business education. Today, a total of 1,037 institutions across 65 countries and territories have earned Ó£ÌÒµ¼º½ accreditation in business. Furthermore, 193 institutions maintain supplemental Ó£ÌÒµ¼º½ accreditation for their accounting programs. 

“Ó£ÌÒµ¼º½ congratulates each institution on their achievement,” said Stephanie M. Bryant, executive vice president and chief accreditation officer of Ó£ÌÒµ¼º½. “Every Ó£ÌÒµ¼º½-accredited school has demonstrated a focus on excellence in all areas, including teaching, research, curricula development, and student learning. The intense peer-review process exemplifies their commitment to quality business education.”

Achieving accreditation is a process of rigorous internal focus, engagement with an Ó£ÌÒµ¼º½-assigned mentor, and peer-reviewed evaluation. During this multiyear path, schools focus on developing and implementing a plan to align with Ó£ÌÒµ¼º½’s accreditation standards. These standards require excellence in areas relating to strategic management and innovation; students, faculty, and staff as active participants; learning and teaching; and academic and professional engagement.
