Regional Meetings
For membership purposes, ACBSP is geographically divided into eight
regions. Each region meets during the ACBSP Annual Conference to conduct
business. In addition, the national office staff and the leadership in
each region provide workshops and seminars throughout the year on topics
and issues that are relevant to the field of business education.
These regional programs provide the opportunity for sharing research
projects conducted by business faculty of member institutions, sharing
innovations and new trends that have occurred in the corporate sector,
and exchanging views on new developments relevant to the business units
in both two and four year institutions of higher education.
The following is key information for meetings scheduled in each region.
Please check back to this site often for updated information.
