| Our History |
Our HistoryIn 1988, representatives from 150 top business schools across the country came together to create a revolutionary approach to accreditation. They envisioned a new accrediting body focused on teaching excellence and student outcomes and from that vision, the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP) was born. Our founders were visionaries who recognized the importance of including associate degree schools, private institutions, and religious institutions in the accreditation process. This commitment to inclusivity has set us apart as the premier accrediting body for business education. With recognition from the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA), ACBSP Accreditation has become the gold standard for quality and excellence in business education. With over 1,100 member campuses, ACBSP has become one of the largest and most influential networks of business schools and programs globally.
