SDBS – Swiss Distance Business School®, a leading institution for online and flexible business education, proudly announces that it has been officially accredited by the International Education Accreditation Council (IEAC). This significant achievement highlights SDBS’s commitment to high-quality, learner-centered, and globally relevant academic delivery.

The IEAC is a globally recognized quality assurance body specializing in evaluating institutional performance, learning outcomes, and strategic governance. It is also listed by the British Quality Foundation, underscoring its credibility in institutional benchmarking and quality management.

Part of a Structured Swiss Academic Ecosystem

SDBS is not only known for its academic innovation and flexibility—it also operates within a distinguished academic hierarchy:

SDBS is part of OUS Academy in Zurich, Switzerland
OUS is a division of the ISBM Business School in Lucerne, a recognized Swiss institution
ISBM is affiliated with the Swiss International University (SIU), registered and recognized in Bishkek

This structure ensures that SDBS benefits from academic oversight, global collaboration, and consistency in quality assurance across all levels—from program development to learner outcomes and institutional governance.

IEAC Accreditation: A Global Mark of Trust and Excellence

Accreditation by IEAC confirms that SDBS:

Operates under robust academic and administrative governance
Offers programs aligned with international educational benchmarks
Maintains a learner-centric model with strong student support
Embeds a system of continuous improvement in all operations
Issues degrees and certificates that carry global credibility

This accreditation not only enhances the value of SDBS credentials for students and graduates, but also opens the door to new academic partnerships, cross-border recognition, and participation in global education networks.

Why SDBS Stands Out

SDBS specializes in delivering flexible business education through modern digital platforms. Its programs are designed to accommodate working professionals, international students, and those seeking career advancement without leaving their home countries. Through online bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral programs, SDBS empowers learners to access a Swiss-quality education wherever they are.

Now, with IEAC accreditation, SDBS further assures its students that their education meets globally recognized standards of quality and institutional reliability.

Looking Ahead

With this latest milestone, SDBS is poised to expand its academic portfolio and global partnerships. As part of a multi-institutional academic family rooted in Swiss values and international outreach, SDBS will continue to focus on digital innovation, personalized education, and trusted academic excellence.
