Keeping up with the rapid change in student expectations, employer demands and technology advances is a constant battle for academic and program leaders of graduate business programs.  Join the Graduate Business Curriculum Roundtable for our annual pre-symposium workshop to apply frameworks from our recent research, along with learning from innovative programs as they develop, design and implement their curricular and programmatic changes.

Bring your team.  This workshop will be a great opportunity for your faculty and staff, to work together to develop their next curricular innovation.  The workshop is a stand alone event, with separate registration required, so you can add it to your 2026 Symposium attendance or just attend Tuesday's workshop.  Special team pricing is available.

New to your role as an academic or administrative program leader? This workshop will be a great introduction to successfully managing your curricular review and innovation responsibilities. Attendees who are new to the process along with those who have already completed a review process are invited to attend this workshop which will be an interactive opportunity to learn from both from the presenters and the attendees who will be participating.  

Discounts for additional team members are available.
