CN-2026 May Proposed Global Standards: Key Changes Workshop

When:  May 13, 2026 from 05:00 AM to 01:00 PM (ET)

The proposed AACSB Global Standards for Business EducationTM (Global Standards) build on the existing standards framework while introducing updates that clarify expectations and strengthen areas of emphasis. This immersive, full-day workshop is designed for accredited and in-process schools seeking a practical understanding of the most significant updates in the standards, and how to respond to them with confidence. Building on participants’ existing familiarity with AACSB accreditation, this interactive session moves beyond overview to application. Through guided discussions, hands-on exercises, and real-world scenarios, participants will explore how updates across faculty qualifications, curriculum, teaching effectiveness, and societal impact affect institutional practice. This workshop focuses on interpreting updated requirements, identifying implications to your school, and beginning the transition from understanding to implementation. Participants will leave with clearer priorities, practical tools, and a structured approach to preparing their schools for a successful transition. Whether you are responsible for accreditation management, assurance of learning, faculty qualifications, or societal impact, this workshop provides targeted support to help your institution navigate the transition effectively.
