Abstract

Simulations are commonly used in business curricula. This paper will discuss the use of a business simulation in a capstone course, and lessons the instructor has learned from multiple terms teaching the capstone course.

7. CREATING A PROGRAM ADVISORY BOARD FROM THE GROUND UP: TIPS FOR SMALL COLLEGE PROGRAM CHAIRS.

Author

Subjects
ADVISORY boards, UNIVERSITY & college administration, COLLEGE administrators, CAREER development, PROFESSIONAL education, UNIVERSITIES & colleges
Abstract

This paper presents suggestions for creating advisory boards or committees for new program chairs or directors in small programs. The focus on small programs is intentional because those chairs/directors typically are forced to Do It Yourself (DIY) because of limited support staff and other resources. Both authors have experienced this challenge in new cities where they had no community connections; they did have mandates to establish program advisory councils as a top priority in their new positions. Drawing on that experience this paper provides tips, suggestions and cautions to facilitate the process. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
