COSMA: Promoting Excellence in Sport Management Education Worldwide
|
The Commission on Sport Management Accreditation is a specialized accrediting body whose purpose is to promote and recognize excellence in sport management education worldwide in colleges and universities at the baccalaureate, master's and doctoral levels through specialized accreditation.
Programs, students, employers, and the general public all benefit from the external verification of quality provided through COSMA's accreditation process. They also benefit from the process of continuous quality improvement that is encouraged by COSMA's developmental approach to promoting excellence in sport management education. COSMA Spotlight

Assessment experts address the elephant in the room: as accreditation expectations and policies evolve, many institutions feel increased uncertainty about how to present strong evidence of student learning—and even more difficulty demonstrating improvement. In this session, attendees leave with strategies and resources for grounding assessment work in educational quality, moving beyond compliance-focused reporting toward practices that both hold up in accreditation review and genuinely support learning and improvement.
CHEA Insights offers thoughtful, enduring perspectives on the evolving landscape of quality assurance in higher education worldwide. Each issue features articles that examine three interconnected areas: U.S. higher education accreditation, emerging frontiers in quality assurance, and global developments shaping the future of higher education.
