NEW YORK - TelAve -- As Trustees' Week ends today, the MBA Standards Board (MBASB) recognizes the outstanding service of its Trustees and Advisory Board members who play a pivotal role in modernizing the pathways to advanced business credentials.

MBASB was founded on a simple premise: today's professionals need business education that keeps pace with an AI-driven economy. The organization equips business leaders to earn MBAe™, MBA+™ and Certified MBA™ post-nominal credentials through verified, experience-based learning of MBA skills and competencies. Unlike traditional degree models, MBASB champions practical achievement through earn-and-learn pathways, internships, projects, sponsored studies, micro-credentials, and documented professional work experience.

Their goal is to accelerate upward mobility for mid-career professionals and ensure industry continues to benefit from capable, future-ready management talent. MBASB requires ongoing continuing education and ethics reviews, providing assurance that credentialed professionals remain current and accountable. Employers can be confident that MBASB-recognized leaders possess up-to-date AI fluency and relevant MBA specializations aligned to real business demand and needs, rather than relying on outdated general degrees rooted in theory delivered many years ago with limited practical current relevance.

"Our Trustees challenge us to think bigger about how business leadership should be cultivated," said an MBASB spokesperson Cheryl Nunn. "They help us preserve academic discipline while embracing the disruptive forces shaping today's workplace. Their service strengthens our ability to scale access, remove needless barriers, and deliver industry credibility to the professionals who are already doing the work."

Individuals with significant professional experience and a commitment to ethical stewardship are increasingly vital to the future of education and workforce development.
