In April 1988, representatives from 150 business schools and programs across the country met in Kansas City to consider the feasibility of forming a new accrediting body based on an innovative approach. While recognizing the importance of scholarly research and encouraging a mutually beneficial balance between research and teaching, the new accreditation process would focus on teaching excellence and student outcomes. For those convening the meeting, the big question was what the level of interest would be. They had their answer when 149 of those representatives voted to participate in making the idea a reality. The founders of what was then known as the Association of Collegiate Business Schools and Programs went to work creating a process that not only recognized the scholarship of teaching but promoted continuous improvement in teaching and real-world success for students.It was a first, as was the decision to be inclusive in its membership. ACBSP was the first to realize the importance of including associate degree schools, as well as private and religious institutions. ACBSP was also the first accrediting body to be recognized by the U.S. Department of Education and later, the first to be recognized by CHEA, the Council for Higher Education Accreditation.In 2010, to better define the mission of the Association as well as to reflect a growing global presence, the decision was made to change the name of ACBSP to Accreditation Council forBusiness Schools and Programs. Today, ACBSP has a network of more than 1,260 member campuses and more than 10,000 individual members, making it one of the leading accreditation bodies for business schools and programs around the world.
Mandakh University became a member of ACBSP in 2011 and was accredited by ACBSP for both its institution and programs in 2014.
