EIASM is pleased to announce that the European Institute of Applied Science and Management has been awarded “Candidate for Accreditation” status by the International Accreditation Council for Business Education (IACBE). This milestone marks an important step in our commitment to delivering business education that meets rigorous international standards.
Founded in 1997 and based in Overland Park, Kansas, the IACBE is recognised by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) and is a leading accrediting body for business and management education programmes.
Following a review of EIASM’s outcomes assessment plan, commitment to excellence in business education, and adherence to IACBE’s candidacy requirements, the Board of Commissioners granted candidacy status effective 3 December 2024, with an eligibility period until 31 December 2029. Candidacy is a key step toward full accreditation and confirms that EIASM is well-positioned to progress through the next stages of review. In the coming years we will continue strengthening our programmes, resources, and operational processes to meet IACBE’s standards.
Beyond reflecting EIASM’s pursuit of academic excellence, this status opens new opportunities for our student community. Full IACBE accreditation will further establish EIASM as a leading institution for business education, offering internationally recognised degrees and preparing students for careers in a global business environment.

We are proud to be on this path toward full accreditation and look forward to the benefits this recognition will bring to our students, faculty, and partners.
