The Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP www.acbsp.org) Baccalaureate/Graduate Degree Board of Commissioners has reaffirmed accreditation of the business programs at Goldey-Beacom College (GBC) in Wilmington, Delaware (www.gbc.edu).
Established in 1988, ACBSP is the only organization offering specialized business accreditation for all degree levels, from associate to baccalaureate to doctoral degree programs. ACBSP accreditation certifies that the teaching and learning processes within the Business Unit at GBC meet the rigorous educational standards established by ACBSP.
GBC was first accredited by ACBSP in 1998. The College is required to go through the reaffirmation process every 10 years to maintain ACBSP accreditation. “Goldey-Beacom College has shown their commitment to teaching excellence and to the process of quality improvement by participating in the accreditation process,” said ACBSP Chief Accreditation Officer Dr. Steve Parscale, who will present the Certificate of Reaffirmation of Accreditation at the ACBSP Conference 2016 in Atlanta, Georgia on June 19.
“This reaffirmation of accreditation is evidence that Goldey-Beacom College is committed to maintaining the highest quality business education for their students for the next 10 years, just as they have done since 1998,” said Parscale.
“It is an honor to receive renewal of ACBSP’s accreditation demonstrating Goldey-Beacom’s continued commitment to excellent teaching standards as well as its 129-year tradition of providing accessible, career-focused education,” said President Dr. Gary L. Wirt. “We are proud of the College’s 90 percent graduate placement rate which has been a strong indicator of our instructional excellence and ability to graduate career-ready students.
