Triple accreditation

Triple accreditation in management education, also known as Triple Crown accreditation, describes the combination of all three leading international accreditations that a business school can achieve: The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), the Association of MBAs (AMBA), and EFMD Quality Improvement System (EQUIS). A total of 124 business schools in the world are triple-accredited as of 21 June 2023. This equals around 1% of business schools worldwide.[1]

Accreditation comparison

Each of the three institutions assesses a business school according to different criteria and scope.[2][3][4] AMBA accreditation certifies the overall quality of the Master in Business Administration MBA programme portfolio, including faculty and facilities. The accreditation assures students that a business school adheres to high quality standards. AACSB and EQUIS include quality benchmarks for the school.
