Business School Grading

What will set your institute apart in India’s exploding education space?

 

Clearly, the quality of teaching imparted.

 

The quality of human capital you create is the primary determinant of the quality of students –  and a feature that draws in recruiters.

 

The CRISIL Business School Grading is India’s first independent and rigorous grading service for the education sector, specifically assessing business schools. Our B-school grading will enable your institute achieve greater academic excellence, establish the right profile, and showcase quality to students, faculty and employers across India.

 

Through our business school grading service, we aim to recognise and nurture quality management education, while helping employers and aspiring management graduates find business schools that best match their needs.

 

CRISIL's initiative for the education sector

 

CRISIL's mission is to become an integral part of India's skill development initiative. In this context, we believe grading education courses will create greater transparency in the education sector and enable all stakeholders to make informed decisions. The gradings will foster the exchange of best practices, helping improve the quality of education. We hope that in time our initiative will span the entire education sector. The launch of our business school gradings is merely a first step.
