Read testimonials from the people involved below:

'The India Accreditation Seminar was a great success, providing the Association of MBAs and decision-makers from Indian business schools the opportunity to debate the challenges and opportunities ahead for management education in India, and to prepare schools for international accreditation. The highly interactive nature of the event created a platform for mutual learning, and illustrated the importance of defining quality standards for this vast and diverse country.'

'The phenomenal success of the India Accreditation Seminar  and the active participation of the delegates drawn from different parts of the country at the seminar vindicates the SEAA's and the Association of MBAs belief that  Indian B-Schools are ready for benchmarking themselves against the best in their class anywhere in the world, which   formed the basis of launching the New Delhi seminar. I am sure that the Association of MBAs would be playing stellar role in promoting global quality among the Indian B-Schools'

The Seminar was an intensive two-day workshop designed to introduce the Association’s international accreditation service, and to provide top Indian business schools with hands-on practical advice on the entire application and assessment process.
