Learning Innovation in Business
Although the initial wave of dot-com development was mostly spark than
fire when it comes to redefining the delivery of degree-based education,
it has quietly advanced in the corporate environment. However, the focus
has shifted from technology enabled formal learning into the field of
informal learning, where learning and work converge. Learning officers
from leading edge companies will describe how they drive learning
innovation and discuss potential implications for business education.

The Future of Faculty and Scholarship
Is the research of business
faculty relevant to practice? To many practitioners and management
educators alike, research in business schools has become overly
scientific and esoteric. Yet, the scholarly approach to business
education is what differentiates degree-based education providers from
their counterparts within business organizations. Experts in this
session will examine the emerging role of research in business education
and discuss best practices in advancing management knowledge.

Exhibitor Session: ETS - Best Practices in the Use of
Assessment Data
This session will be comprised of two unified discussions concerning the
effective use of outcomes assessments in tailoring curriculum and
determining institutional effectiveness. A Senior Executive Director
from Educational Testing Service will discuss strategies for
institutional assessment and, in particular, outcomes assessments, as
well as the types of data that such assessments provide and the
interpretation and application of these data. Bridging the gap between
the theoretical and practical, a co-presenter from an AACSB-accredited
institution will represent the interest of schools of business – their
objectives, expectations, and responsibilities – in building a
successful assessment plan in order to document institutional
effectiveness for accreditation purposes while using the results for
tailoring curriculum. This practical aspect of outcomes assessment may
be presented as a mini “case study” of a successful assessment plan.

MBA in a Different Light
MBA programs have come under fire
from outside and inside the academy. Some critics have said that MBA
programs provide little value to their graduates and the organizations
that employ them. Others say that they have become irrelevant in the
current environment and, in some cases, have even done damage to our
societies by focusing on scientific models. This session will try to
paint a realistic picture of MBA education, exposing it strengths, as
well as opportunities to improve.
It
will look not only at the evolution of MBA education to where it is
today, but also to anticipating the nature of MBA programs in the near
future.

this intersection by exploring the role of new enterprise incubators,
implications for regional economic development, and the balance of
protection and risk.
