ACBSP Accreditation of CSU Global Programs

The Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP) is a global accrediting body for business education, pioneering accreditation across all levels of collegiate business degree programs from associate to doctoral.

ACBSP sets a standard of excellence through an accreditation process rooted in the Baldrige Education Criteria for Performance Excellence. By evaluating leadership, strategic planning, stakeholder relationships, academic program quality, faculty credentials, and educational support, ACBSP determines whether business programs provide a rigorous educational experience and are committed to continuous quality improvement.
