  • November 2018
    ACCREDITATION COUNCIL FOR BUSINESS SCHOOLS AND PROGRAMS Igniting a Standard of Excellence in Business Education Worldwide December 1, 2018 The following information is provided from the Baccalaureate/Graduate Degree Board of Commissioners accreditation decisions from the November 29-30, 2018 meeting. No business program will be accredited without establishing performance expectations, measuring results, comparing results to expectations, and taking action to improve. Business programs identify opportunities for improvement, along with ACBSP, to help them plan to move to higher levels of academic excellence. When it is noted that “performance expectations established by the programs are being met,” you can see performance expectations by program at this link: https://cdn.ymaws.com/www.acbsp.org/resource/resmgr/files/acbsp_chea_12b_1_evidence_oc.pdf ACBSP's Core Value of Continuous Improvement and Organizational Learning, that "Business schools and programs should pursue regular cycles of planning, execution and evaluation of every process and system. Ongoing improvement of these processes and systems leads to ever higher quality and student/stakeholder satisfaction." Accreditation Granted with Conditions There are occasions when the Board of Commissioners may grant “Conditional Accreditation.” This means that most standards and criteria are met, but there are some deficiencies in fully meeting all the ACBSP standards or criteria. For example, if multiple criteria in Standard 4 regarding student learning outcome assessment are not fully met, a condition could be placed on the student learning outcome assessment standard 4. The president/rector or person in a similar position of the institution has pledged that the deficiencies will be remedied within a four-year time frame. Progress on improving the process to remove the conditions must be submitted to ACBSP every two years, asking for a review so the conditions can be removed.
