Online BBA

Do you want to complete your bachelor’s degree to open more career doors? If so, make sure you choose a Bachelor of Business Administration program that is AACSB-accredited. Here’s why.

Best in business

Why does AACSB-accreditation matter? AACSB is the premier accreditor of business schools in the world (a.k.a the Rolls-Royce of business school accreditation). Less than five percent — or about 840 — of the world’s business programs are AACSB-accredited. To become AACSB-accredited, business schools must achieve rigorous, high-quality standards to prove themselves as the best in business education globally.

AACSB standards

Fifteen (yes, 15!) standards in the following categories must be met to earn AACSB accreditation:

  • Strategic management and innovation
  • Participants (students, faculty, and professional staff)
  • Learning and teaching
  • Academic and professional engagement

And it doesn’t stop there. The entire process includes reviews from peer institutions, self-evaluations, and the creation of strategic plans to make sure the innovation and quality standards keep improving. Every five years, schools have to undergo reviews to make sure they are evolving and meeting the highest standards in business education.
