The CDs are designed to educate faculty as well as students and require no investment of faculty time in formal training outside the proposed CPE session. The session provides hands-on access and copies of the CDs. Advancement in curriculum innovation seems especially timely given new AACSB and NASBA standards mandated curriculum advances.
