Leveraging ACBSP Collaboration to Promote Articulation for Seamless Transfer

Abstract

Programmatic accreditation through the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP) provides academic consistency and fosters mutual respect among members. When two ACBSP institutions enter into an articulation agreement, the students benefit from seamless, continued education from a two-year to four-year degree completion. Two such institutions, the Community College of Baltimore County, Baltimore, MD, and Peirce College, Philadelphia, PA share their experience as a way to encourage ACBSP programmatic accreditation and the collaboration of other ACBSP accredited programs.
