The International Accreditation Board (IAB)

We believe that programmes should be of the highest standard and reflect changing trends and innovation in postgraduate management education. To ensure this the International Accreditation Board (IAB), part of the governance structure of the Association of MBAs, drafts and constantly monitors our accreditation criteria. The Board consists of senior academics at many of the top educational institutions around the world.
