The University of Cape Town’s Graduate School of Business (UCT GSB) has been accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). South Africa, the Good News, reports that it is now one of the few business schools in the world to be accredited by the three largest and most influential business school accreditation associations.
The news service reports that in 2012, the business school was accredited by the Association of MBAs (AMBA) and was recently re-awarded accreditation from the European Foundation for Management Development, which awards the European Quality Improvement System (EQUIS) accreditation.
“These accreditations are extremely valuable for a business school. Although many dismiss them as mere marketing collateral they are an important investment in the quality of a business school,” says Director of the GSB, Walter Baets.
