Call for Papers: IMA CASE CONFERENCE

                   ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR CASES

                         IMA CASE CONFERENCE

                          June 15-16, 2008
                           Tampa, Florida


     The Institute of Management Accountants (IMA) will hold a
     Case Conference in Tampa, Florida in conjunction with its
     89th Annual Conference & Exposition, June 14-18, 2008.

     The goal of the conference is to bring together academic
     and practitioners to discuss cases relating to current
     issues in the field of management accounting, thus
     deepening and enhancing the perspectives of both groups of
     attendees. Cases in any area of management accounting are
     invited.

     The conference will also promote the collaboration of
     academics and practitioners in the development of real-
     world-based cases for use in the accounting curriculum.
     Submission of cases reflecting "real world" situations are
     preferred, as are cases jointly prepared (and presented) by
     an academic and practitioner.


     FAST TRACK OPTION:

     Cases accepted for presentation at the conference will
     automatically receive a "fast-track" review for publication
     in the IMA Educational Case Journal unless otherwise
     requested by the author(s).
