INDIAN ASSOCIATION OF AUTONOMOUS BUSINESS SCHOOLS!
IAABS agenda
Indian Association of Autonomous Business Schools (IAABS) started almost a decade ago has an unique agenda to further the interests of the PGDM and autonomous business schools of the country. Historically, PGDM schools have been known for their quality which is the result of the autonomy that they had enjoyed over the years.
In the recent times however, the autonomy has been further accentuated by government policy which is increasingly learning towards giving greater flexibility to education institutions of greater value. In the wake of the New Education Policy 2020 adopted with great fanfare, the chances of the PGDM schools becoming more relevant and strong has become possible provided there is common agenda of progress and consultation among the stake holders.
