Abstract
Stakeholders in management education are increasingly demanding external validation of learning and quality assurance. In this essay, I contend that, given the rapid increase in the number of universities offering business programs around the world, AACSB accreditation is more important than ever. The goal of this essay is, therefore, to provide accurate information about accreditation issues that impact business faculty and help faculty understand the value of AACSB accreditation to management education. Another goal is to facilitate an open discussion about how AACSB accreditation impacts business schools and perhaps motivate faculty to reconsider their perceptions about it.
