Rome, January 2022. The Italian Association for Management Training (ASFOR), has accredited also the Rome Business School International MBA.
The MBA has been accredited by the Italian Association for Management Training (ASFOR), the most important body in Italy to measure the excellence of post-graduate and executive training courses in management and business education; ASFOR assesses in accordance with the most rigorous international standards and following the indications developed at a global level in the context of the sectoral associations such as AACSB, EFMD, EQUAL.
The recognition comes after a very rigorous analysis, lasting 10 months, made by the board of directors, the accreditation commission and the verification team composed of three auditors appointed by the commission. The process took into consideration aspects such as: the admission procedure, the educational path, the teachers and the program director, the personal development of the students and career service, the structure and organizational aspects, the quality and assurance system, the economic and financial sustainability of the program and the institution itself.
During the evaluation phase, particular emphasis was placed on the professionalism of the faculty involved and the excellent direction of the program, as well as on the effective work carried out by Career Services for the professional development of the students.
ASFOR therefore certifies that RBS is well organized and excellently manages the various stages of program delivery, guaranteeing continuity from an organizational and procedural point of view and managing the quality and assurance system in an excellent manner.
Particular importance has been attributed by ASFOR to the international context in which Rome Business School operates. In fact, the evaluators’ judgment emphasizes that being part of an international group such as Planeta offers ample opportunities, favors international exchanges, the possibility of co-creating programs between the schools that are part of the group and the use of well-structured management methods. Furthermore, evaluators perceived it as “evolving institution”, which is transforming very rapidly, thanks also to the use of replicable organizational procedures, both in terms of the management of different programs and in the standardization of the activities.
“We are very proud of the ASFOR accreditation of our MBA – says the Dean of Rome Business School, Antonio Ragusa. – It is, in fact, a prestigious recognition of the quality of our training offer, both in terms of teaching and career services. The MBA, in particular, represents a program of special importance, because it is designed to launch participants towards high-level managerial and entrepreneurial roles. For this reason, having passed the rigorous examination by ASFOR with extreme success represents a confirmation of the Rome Business School’s ability to create real value for its students. A value that is expressed in up-to-date and cutting-edge skills, in exclusive networking and placement opportunities both in Italy and abroad, and in international study experiences with our partners around the world. All accompanied by a vision of values based on corporate social responsibility and summarized in our motto Better Managers for a Better World”.
Through this accreditation, RBS not only adds further prestige and quality to its programs, but also reaffirms and certifies the significant managerial training provided for the purpose of developing the right skills among its students in relation to the needs of the labor market.
“The ASFOR accreditation of our MBA testifies to the constant dedication of the faculty in passionately transferring their knowledge and experience to the students, the commitment and determination of the MBA students having as first aim their professional growth and able to combine work, MBA and family, to the fruitful collaboration with companies and managers, the work of the entire RBS team” – says Mariella Pugliesi, Head of Didactics at Rome Business School.
Thanks to ASFOR accreditation, the key program of the RBS’s offer becomes a fundamental and indispensable factor for the dissemination and strengthening of the managerial culture, today essential to better manage the complexity of modern businesses.
