On-Campus Workshops

Bring AACSB expertise directly to your campus with customized, team-based learning designed around your school’s mission, priorities, and accreditation journey. As part of the AACSB Academy’s portfolio of professional learning, which includes certificate programs, open-enrollment seminars, and microlearning, on-campus workshops translate AACSB standards into practical, institution-specific action.

On-campus workshops are ideal for institutions that want to engage a broader group of leaders, faculty, and staff in a shared learning experience. Working closely with your dean and leadership team, AACSB facilitators tailor agendas, examples, and activities to your context so participants can apply concepts immediately. This format is often the most cost-effective option for institutions looking to train groups of 12 or more.

What an On-Campus Workshop Offers

Customized design: Content and activities tailored to your mission, region, strategy, and stage in the accreditation or continuous improvement journey
Deeper facilitator engagement: Extended interaction before and during the workshop to align content with your goals and address institution-specific questions
Team alignment: Creates a shared understanding across leadership, faculty, and staff, strengthening institutional cohesion and readiness for next steps
Cost-effective for groups: A scalable model for developing multiple stakeholders at once, rather than sending one or two individuals to open-enrollment programs

The most valuable aspects of the private seminar, in my opinion, were the ability to apply AACSB accreditation standards related to faculty and research and empower faculty to contribute to and achieve our school's mission and strategic objectives. I found that answering questions and walking us through the standards helped us understand them better.
