Standards for Educational Advancement & Accreditation (SEAA) Trust, New Delhi

was launched  advocating "Self-Regulation with Accreditation" as its core mission.  Based on the experience of having Pioneered the Media Ranking and Rating  of Business Education in India since the year 2000 at the top rated Business India fortnightly, the founder of  SEAA Trust, New Delhi  felt that a campaign for  International Accreditation was Necessary  to bring in the best Benchmarks of Quality in Indian Business Education, which is world's largest in the number of Business Schools, but  fairly low in the  list of  B-Schools  that could claim to possess Internationally comparable quality. 

 

Our Advocacy campaigns: In the year 2008 when SEAA Trust, New Delhi's campaign for Global Accreditation was launched  there was just one  B-school, Management Development Institute (MDI) Gurgaon that was Internationally Accredited by Association of MBAs, London (AMBA). We launched our first  Advocacy conference in that year. We were overwhelmed by the response of Business Schools  numbering over 200 at our First conference. 

​

Future Forward: As we enter the New Year 2025, 17 years later, support to our conference has not waned nor the  brisk pace with which the schools are   acquiring International Benchmarks of quality from the above listed International Accreditation Agencies vindicating our Campaign.  From just one Internationally Accredited Business School  when we started now there are over 100 B-Schools that are globally accredited.  

​

The Outcome: All the top B-Schools that usually figure within   200 Ranks  in any listing is either accredited globally or is processing its International Accreditation currently  leading to true Self-Regulation for benchmarked progress and for achieving globally benchmarked quality. 

​

Annual Conferences: Our annual Conference has emerged as a benchmark by itself by connecting the best business schools with the top-rated accreditation systems of the world  without a break  in the past 16 years. The 17th year conference also got overwhelming response from all the top accreditation systems that was held at the Chitkara University Punjab at their campus near  Chandigarh city for two days on November 25  & 26, 2024. 

​

SEAA Offerings: Besides propagating International Accreditation benchmarks, we are also sensitive to changing Business and Education landscape  and we have consistently chosen  contemporary topics at our annual conferences and also at the various  Regional conferences,  campus based programmes,  Faculty Development Programmes, workshops  both online and offline.
