    Indeed they are, Ted - and also in Continental Europe, e.g. this excellent French school, well-known to our pages here at DI:

    Accreditations | French Business School | Grenoble Ecole de Management

    And this super-exclusive Swiss school, that only accepts 90 MBA students per year, because "world class business leaders cannot be mass-produced."

    The primary issue I have with giving much credence to the AACSB outside the U.S. or the Triple Crown generally is because the business schools at Oxford, Cambridge, the London School of Economics and St. Andrews are not AACSB accredited. You can at least make the argument that those are the top four schools of business in Europe. This would be akin to proposing that there was some illustrious business school honor in the U.S. that Harvard, Wharton, Stanford, and Chicago were missing. Ipso facto, it would not be that illustrious an honor.

    My thoughts in qualifying the business schools’ Triple accreditation reasoning for an augmented verification of program quality measures … the B-school's expected use of the one percent distinction as also a comprehensive marketing tool for their brand/s, e.g., AACSB for North American prospective enrollments, AMBA for the UK, and EQUIS accreditation targeted toward the European marketplace. Potentially, expanding the individual business school’s overall international brand development while incorporating the further strategy of differentiating from the crowd…

    Undeniably it's a good marketing tool, that's obviously what it's about. And of course, marketing and perception is no small thing. All else equal, I'd prefer the Triple Accreditation over one or two out of three. So our positions here really aren't far apart, if they're apart at all. I was just being pedantic and argumentative. Kind of makes sense, I'm an academic (pedantic) in the law (argumentative). : )

    I never considered your views as argumentative at all...:smokin:
