Recently, we were informed by the European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD) that the SBA has been approved by the EFMD Membership Review Committee to become its full member.
EFMD (European Foundation for Management Development) is a Europe-based global network of elite business schools and senior management & education institutions. It is Europe's top platform for information exchange and dialogue on innovation research and practice of management development theories. Headquartered in Brussels, Belgium, EFMD has more than 900 institutional members from 92 countries and more than 30,000 individual members from academia, business, public services and consulting. EQUIS accreditation of EFMD is one of the three most authoritative business school accreditation systems in the world.
As a member of EFMD, the SBA will actively participate in various EFMD activities. Relying on the platform of EFMD, the SBA and ZUEL will strengthen in-depth exchanges with well-known universities, academic institutions and enterprises, and create more opportunities to develop high-quality international cooperation within Europe. Besides, the SBA and ZUEL will further promote the application of the Alliance of Chinese and European Business Schools (ACE) membership and EQUIS accreditation.
