Triple accreditation in management education, also known as Triple Crown accreditation, is the combined business school accreditation of three major accreditation bodies: AACSB in the United States, AMBA in the United Kingdom, and EQUIS in the European Union. More than 110 business schools worldwide, or about 1% of all business schools, are triple-accredited.[1]
