The Aspen Institute Center for Business Education (CBE)
Inaugural Web-conference
MBA CURRICULUM REFORM IN THE ACCOUNTING DISCIPLINE
The Aspen Institute Center for Business Education (CBE) is
pleased to invite your participation at our inaugural web-
conference, first in the Center for Business Education Web-
Conference Series: MBA Curriculum Reform in the Accounting
Discipline.
FEATURING:
Jane Cote, Associate Professor of Accounting, Washington
State University, Vancouver
MODERATED BY:
Maureen Scully, Professor of Management, University of
Massachusetts, Boston
TIME AND DATE:
Tuesday, April 29th, 2008,
1pm - 2pm Eastern Standard Time (EST)
OVERVIEW:
Professor Cote will be discussing the recently revamped
core MBA Accounting Course at WSU, Vancouver. This new
course explores how accounting information impacts not only
strategic decision makers but also a firm's stakeholders.
In the face of endless possible data collection, it is
essential to assess what should be measured in order to
assess performance and progress toward strategic goals, and
most fundamentally, to look deeply at what we need to know
about the credibility and implicit assumptions in the
process of measurement itself.
The course, "Accounting Measurement for Leaders" is a piece
of the innovative work being done as part of Aspen
Institute CBE's Corporate Governance and Accountability
Project.
