The scope of business school accreditations for AACSB, EQUIS and AMBA

The EFMD Quality Improvement System (EQUIS) is a business school accreditation organization based in Brussels, Belgium. It provides accreditation for higher education institutions of management and business administration and is run by the European Foundation for Management Development. [1] It is considered as one of the triple accreditation.

EQUIS has accredited 210 institutions in 45 countries around the world. [2] In 2022, Equis suspended all higher education institutions in Russia from its ranking. [3]

History

EQUIS' directors in 2018 were Ulrich Hommel and David Asch. [4] As of 2022, the EQUIS director is Alfons Sauquet. [5] In the past 20 years of existence, the organization has accredited 189 institutions in 45 countries. [2]

Object of the accreditation

The accreditation is awarded to business schools based on general quality. The process also takes into account the business school's level of internationalization, which is not a strict requirement for accreditation by the other two major international accreditation bodies: AACSB and AMBA. [6] As of 2014, all fully accredited EQUIS business schools applying for AACSB accreditation have succeeded, which has not been the case the other way. [7]

EQUIS accreditation can be granted for three years (with annual progress reports on the areas of improvement required) or for five years (with a mid-term progress report on development objectives required). [8]
