Diversity and Inclusion
The Chartered ABS is committed to encouraging equality, diversity and inclusion within our organisation and thus in the membership of our Boards and Committees, where necessary encouraging applications from under-represented groups. Applications from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic individuals are particularly encouraged.
The composition of our Boards and Committees should, where possible, reflect the diversity of the Chartered ABS membership of business schools. For example, consideration will be given to a school’s geographic location, mission group affiliation, and levels of representation across our committees.
