EBS successfully re-accredited by CEEMAN

Estonian Business School is delighted to announce that it has been re-accredited by CEEMAN (Central and Eastern European Management Development Association) for a further five years. As one of the pioneers in this system, and the first business school in the Baltic States, Estonian Business School was originally awarded this international accreditation in 2001.

In a ceremony held during the 15th CEEMAN Annual Conference held in Istanbul, Turkey, the accreditation certificate was presented to the Rector of the Estonian Business School, Professor Madis Habakuk. “We are delighted at this recognition of the quality and achievements of our school”, said Professor Habakuk. “We have worked hard to maintain our international credentials, and underline those areas such as entrepreneurship which are important for our future development.”

The Peer Review Report stressed the positive developments within Estonian Business School, particularly in the areas of internationalisation and research. Although both areas were well developed in 2001, the past few years have seen a ‘dramatic’ jump in progress.
