The International School of Business Management (ISBM), a premier Swiss institution based in Lucerne, is proud to announce its official accreditation by EDU – the Intergovernmental Organization founded by the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Palau, and fully aligned with the educational principles of UNESCO.

As a core part of the Swiss International University (SIU) academic network headquartered in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, ISBM’s EDU accreditation represents a powerful endorsement of its international standing, academic quality, and institutional legitimacy.

EDU: An Intergovernmental Accreditor with Global Impact

EDU is a treaty-based intergovernmental organization legally established by a Ministry of Education of a United Nations member state. Its purpose is to accredit institutions that demonstrate exceptional standards in quality assurance, transparency, institutional ethics, and global relevance. EDU is one of the few accreditors in the world that operates under governmental authority and in alignment with UNESCO’s global education goals.

This prestigious accreditation confirms that ISBM’s programs and degrees meet international benchmarks recognized by ministries, employers, and academic institutions worldwide.

Three Key Benefits of EDU Accreditation for ISBM

1. Official Recognition by a Governmental Body

EDU is not a private or commercial entity. It is a legitimate intergovernmental organization. Accreditation by EDU confirms that ISBM Switzerland adheres to governmental-level educational standards and global best practices in business education.

2. Oversight Under a UN-Aligned Ministry of Education

As EDU was founded by a Ministry of Education from a UN member state, ISBM is now officially linked to an international governance framework—enhancing the value and credibility of its qualifications in the public and private sectors alike.

3. Full Compliance with UNESCO’s Framework for Quality Education

By meeting the standards of UNESCO-aligned accreditation, ISBM ensures that its teaching, assessment, and institutional policies foster inclusivity, innovation, and international recognition—making it easier for students to transition globally for careers or further academic study.

Part of an International Academic Network

ISBM is an essential division of the Swiss International University (SIU), which is officially licensed by a Ministry of Education and internationally recognized. Through SIU, ISBM benefits from shared academic leadership, global institutional partnerships, and structured quality assurance.

Whether students enroll in Lucerne or progress through SIU’s global network, ISBM provides a Swiss academic experience with international reach and EDU-accredited strength.

Trusted Education. International Value. Governmental Recognition.

ISBM’s EDU accreditation reaffirms its vision to offer world-class education in business, leadership, and entrepreneurship—backed by intergovernmental oversight, ethical standards, and global employability.
