ACBSP's accreditation standards are based on the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award process, the widely-acknowledged business “gold standard” that requires regular reporting on the results of continuous improvement plans. Peirce College's
Business Administration program has been accredited by the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP) since 1999. Peirce’s Accounting program was one of the first to receive the separate Specialized Accounting Accreditation by ACBSP in 2012.
ACBSP accreditation does not pertain to the Human Resource Management or the Organizational Leadership & Management programs.
