CEEMAN IQA procedure

CEEMAN IQA has a six-stage accreditation procedure.



Eligibility criteria:

1. CEEMAN membership.
2. An institution whose primary mission is management or business education. Management faculties or departments that are embedded in schools of economics or in technical universities may be accredited but not the larger non-management institutions that contain them.
3. A minimum of five years of operation.
4. A minimum of three graduating cohorts in each of its major groups of program offerings.

CEEMAN IQA accreditation status is granted for an initial period of six years after which the institution could apply for re-accreditation. During this period, membership fee is to be settled annually.

CEEMAN IQA Fees

For initial accreditation, the fee of 12.850* EUR is charged as follows:
