Liberty University has attained ACBSP accreditation, or is pursuing ACBSP accreditation (please see our website for programs that are accredited or are pursuing accreditation), for many programs in the School of Business. ACBSP accreditation standards are modeled on the Baldrige National Quality Program.

The goal in seeking ACBSP accreditation is that employers will find value in knowing you graduated from a school that uses the same standards as those used by businesses, health care providers, and others to recognize excellence. ACBSP’s student-centered teaching and learning approach, which is measured and analyzed for quality, will ensure that you gain the right skills from your educational investment.
