ESADE remains loyal to its status as a pioneer, and to its commitment to quality and innovation in management training:
- It is Spain's Number 1 Business School, and Europe's 7th to achieve the quality accreditation conferred by The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB International), which grants the most prestigious worldwide recognition in executive training. The Dean of the ESADE Business School, Xavier Mendoza, has been appointed member of the AACSB International Accreditation Committee, the only European Dean to hold that position.
- ESADE is one of Europe's first institutions to obtain the European Quality Improvement System (EQUIS) accreditation, which is granted by the European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD). ESADE Director General, Carlos Losada, was recently appointed new member of the EFMD Board.
- Our MBA Programmes boast the worldwide accreditation of the Association of MBAs (AMBA).
The three prestigious international accreditations constitute the so-called triple crown.
Additionally, ESADE is a founding member of the Community of European Management Schools (CEMS), a community that encompasses Europe's best university centres and only one business school per country, together with noted European companies. It is also the founder of the European Doctoral Programmes Association in Management and Business Administration (EDAMBA).
