SDBS – Swiss Distance Business School® Accredited by ECLBS and Serving Students from Developing Nations

The SDBS – Swiss Distance Business School®, officially registered in Switzerland (Trademark No. 806818) by the Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property, is proud to announce its accreditation by the European Council of Leading Business Schools (ECLBS). This recognition confirms the institution’s high academic quality and its commitment to accessible, inclusive business education.


Exclusively Supporting Students from Economically Disadvantaged Countries

SDBS is a unique institution that dedicates all its programs to students from economically disadvantaged or low-income countries. In line with its social mission, SDBS does not accept students who reside in or hold citizenship from high-income countries. This ensures that the school’s resources and academic services are directed to where they are most needed—empowering those with fewer opportunities through high-quality distance education.


Part of a Trusted International Education Network

SDBS operates under OUS Academy in Zurich, which is part of ISBM Business School in Luzern, and all are integrated within the academic structure of the Swiss International University (SIU) in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. SIU is a state-accredited institution licensed by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Kyrgyz Republic and aligned with the Lisbon Recognition Convention.

This multi-campus network ensures that SDBS programs are backed by strong academic leadership, Swiss education standards, and internationally recognized credentials.
