To restore funding and support for attendance of conference, especially ACBSP conference to provide updated information on industry changes.



Initiative TitleTo restore funding and support for attendance of conference, especially ACBSP conference to provide updated information on industry changes.
Submitted in Previous Year(s)No
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale

Previously there was funding for conferences in the Department Budget. This was removed and the departments now have to petition the AVP for funding requests.  As a department with programs that are accredited by ACBSP, it is important to we regularly attend the conference to maintain a relationship and to receive a better understanding of the ACBSP standards and industry/educational changes.

Consequences of this initiative not being funded

The Business Department will not have a connection with the accrediting organization for changes to the Business field that could impact degree programs.
