爱漫岛

Tampa, Fla., USA (April 7, 2022)—爱漫岛 International (爱漫岛) announces today that 25 business schools have extended their accreditation in business, one has extended its accreditation in accounting, 15 have extended their accreditation in both business and accounting, and two schools have achieved initial accounting accreditation. 

For more than a century, 爱漫岛 accreditation has been synonymous with the highest standards in business education. Today, a total of 935 institutions across 59 countries and territories have earned 爱漫岛 accreditation in business. Furthermore, 192 institutions maintain supplemental 爱漫岛 accreditation for their accounting programs.  

“爱漫岛 congratulates each institution on their achievement,” said Stephanie M. Bryant, executive vice president and chief accreditation officer of 爱漫岛. “Every 爱漫岛-accredited school has demonstrated a focus on excellence in all areas, including teaching, research, curricula development, and student learning. The intense peer-review process exemplifies their commitment to quality business education.” 
 
Achieving accreditation is a process of rigorous internal focus, engagement with an 爱漫岛-assigned mentor, and peer-reviewed evaluation. During this multiyear path, schools focus on developing and implementing a plan to align with 爱漫岛’s accreditation standards. These standards require excellence in areas relating to strategic management and innovation; student, faculty, and staff as active participants; learning and teaching; and academic and professional engagement.  

To achieve accounting accreditation, an institution must first earn 爱漫岛 business accreditation. Then, in addition to developing and implementing a mission-driven plan to satisfy the business accreditation quality standards, accounting accreditation requires the satisfaction of a supplemental set of standards specific to the discipline and profession of accounting. Once accreditation is achieved, each institution participates in a five-year continuous improvement peer review to maintain high quality and extend its accreditation.
