"China today is on a fast track but still needs further efforts to be more involved in the world economy. Chinese business schools are correspondingly facing the increasing urgency to join the global family of business education. EQUIS accreditation is an invitation and entrance ticket to such a community. We expect to work more closely with prestigious business schools around the world. "
Prof. Dr Lu, Dean, School of Management, Fudan University
"We at ITAM are very enthusiastic about our recent EQUIS accreditation. The process involved a widely encompassing review that made us look carefully at our school, the achievements we have realized in the recent past as well as our challenges to continue improving in the future. The EQUIS accreditation process has been highly valuable to us, just like a thorough administrative audit of a business. Needless to say, we are thrilled about the results which increase our visibility beyond the borders of Mexico, and we will do everything possible so that when the PRT comes on their next review in a few years, they will find things even better than they were in 2009."
Dr. Carlos Alcerreca, Director General, ITAM - Instituto Tecnológico Autónomo de México
“The Telfer School of Management at the University of Ottawa is very pleased to have received recognition from the leading international system of quality assessment, improvement and accreditation for business schools. EQUIS accreditation demonstrates our continued dedication to high quality education in management.”
Dr. Micheál J. Kelly, Dean, Telfer School, University of Ottawa
"We are proud to have the EQUIS accreditation. Just as scoring higher international rankings is a strong affirmation of the quality of our programmes, students and faculty, having EQUIS is an affirmation of NUS Business School's high standards of quality and degree of internationalisation, as well as professional relevance to the corporate world. We will continue in our efforts to scale higher peaks of excellence as Asia's global business school."
