“These campuses have shown their commitment to teaching excellence and to the process of quality improvement by participating in the accreditation process. The initial accreditation and reaffirmation of accreditation granted to these institutions demonstrates their commitment to provide the highest quality business education for their students,” said Dr. Steve Parscale, ACBSP Chief Accreditation Officer.

Celebrating 32 years of excellence in global business program accreditation, ACBSP offers specialized business accreditation for all degree levels, from associate to baccalaureate to doctoral degree programs, and was the first business accreditor to offer certificate accreditation.

ACBSP has an accreditation search tool to assist students, faculty, and prospective employers in finding accredited programs.
