WELCOME TO THE IACBE’S
2015 ANNUAL CONFERENCE AND ASSEMBLY MEETING!
The Board of Directors, the Board of Commissioners, and
the staff of the International Assembly for Collegiate
Business Education (IACBE) welcome you to the ‘Charm
City’ of Baltimore and the Assembly’s 2015 Annual
Conference and Assembly Meeting. We believe that we
have an outstanding lineup of concurrent sessions and
other activities and events planned for you this year.
On Tuesday, Peregrine Academic Services will conduct a
group meeting and host a luncheon for users of its
assessment products and services. The conference then
officially kicks off with a welcome reception on Tuesday
evening. Don’t miss this opportunity to reconnect and visit
with friends and colleagues! The first day ends with a
networking social.
Over the next three days, we hope that you will take advantage of the 52 breakout sessions, 6 special roundtable
sessions, and a variety of other events, activities, and sessions on offer this year.
Deserving of special note are a plenary session on Wednesday morning dealing with the IACBE’s new
expectations and requirements for assessment and reporting; the recognition luncheon on Wednesday where
we will recognize those individuals who have served the IACBE in various capacities and those schools that have
recently achieved candidacy status; the awards luncheon on Thursday where we will present the IACBE’s annual
awards of excellence; and an optional Baltimore Orioles baseball game on Wednesday evening. On Thursday
evening, all conference participants are invited to our accreditation banquet – the wonderful highlight of each
annual conference.
This year’s conference also features our fourth annual Student Case-Study Competition focusing on business
ethics. The competition will take place on both Wednesday and Thursday, and will provide students with an
opportunity to showcase their ability to analyze a case and to identify and discuss recommendations for ethical
action.
The conference concludes on Friday morning with two special roundtable sessions. Friday’s activities also
include a series of all-day workshops dealing with various aspects of the IACBE’s accreditation process.
Once again, welcome to Baltimore and our 2015 Annual Conference and Assembly Meeting. We hope that you
find the various conference events both productive and enjoyable, and that you will have many ‘take-aways’
as you return to your respective institutions. If we can assist in any way during the conference, please feel free
to ask. As always, we stand ready to partner with you in a shared journey toward excellence in business
education.

self-studies effectively and how to conduct productive and efficient site visits. At the end of the day, you will have
completed the requirements necessary to be assigned to a site-visit team.
Workshop 4: Site-Visit Team Chair Training (Frederick) ...........................................................
8:30 am to 10:00 am

team. In this workshop, Dr. Okrepkie and Dr. Hilton will focus on the responsibilities associated with chairing an
accreditation site-visit team. The workshop is intended only for those who have completed a site-visit peer reviewer
training session and have been a member of a site-visit team. Participation in this workshop is by invitation only.

Wednesday-Thursday | April 15-16
The IACBE is committed to “partnering with colleges and universities in
preparing today’s business students for tomorrow’s workplace.” In this
spirit, the case-study competition focuses on business ethics and is
intended to provide students with an opportunity to showcase their
abilities to analyze a case, to identify and discuss recommendations for
ethical action, and to ‘think on their feet.’ The case-study competition
requires their ability to (1) work as members of a team, (2) collect and
analyze data, and (3) effectively present case information and answer
questions in a clear, concise, and professional manner.
A first-, second-, and third-place team will be selected based on the combined scores from four rounds of
presentations over two days of competition. The winning team will be awarded a $1,000 scholarship generously
sponsored by Bloomberg Businessweek.
For the second year in a row, the final-round case is graciously provided to the IACBE by the Eller Center for
Leadership Ethics at the University of Arizona.
