At our peer review visit earlier this year I was proud to show the team how much we had progressed in just three years, and in particular to demonstrate the steps we had taken to ensure that responsibility and sustainability are at the heart of our education and research.

King's Business School retains 'triple crown' with reaccreditation by EQUIS
The European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD) Quality Improvement System (EQUIS) has accredited King’s Business School for a further five years, ensuring that it retains the ‘triple crown’; accreditation by the world’s three leading business school accreditation bodies.
The School was initially accredited by EQUIS for a three-year period in 2022, when it applied for the first time since becoming a fully rounded business school in 2017.
The EFMD Quality Improvement System (EQUIS) accreditation is a globally recognised mark of excellence for business and management education. It involves a rigorous evaluation of institutions based on criteria such as academic programmes, faculty quality, research output, and student services.
Since its first accreditation by EQUIS, King’s Business School has continued to develop, including a doubling of its executive education offering, the establishment of a new Centre for Sustainable Business to act as a catalyst for education and research on sustainability issues, and established an Executive MBA designed around the principle of ‘better business for a better world.’
In addition to its EQUIS accreditation, King’s Business School is accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of business (AACSB) and the Association of MBAs (AMBA).
