From December 18-19, the the International Business Institute at the Ivey Business School of Western University (Canada) and the Academy of International Business will organize a Case Teaching Workshop in partnership with ASE.

This workshop is part of the “39 Countries Initiative” created in 2010 by Professor Paul Beamish of Ivey Business School.  The initiative is a business-school-to-business-school network that seeks to improve the quality of management education in the world’s 39 lowest income countries.

The workshop is designed to develop and improve the skills needed for interactive case based teaching. It will focus on fostering an active learning environment that engages students in learning how to solve contemporary challenges of business organizations. The workshop will use actual case examples to demonstrate the practical aspects of case teaching. Dr. Elie Chrysostome of the State University of New York (SUNY) Plattsburgh will facilitate.

Business school faculty members are eligible to attend this free workshop. In particular, educators from Benin, Burkina Faso, Cote d’Ivoire, Ghana, Guinea, Liberia, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone and Togo are encouraged to attend. So far, over forty participants have registered.

Registration remains open until December 9.

With any questions about registration, please contact the Dean of ASE, Fr. Dr Claude Domfang, SJ (cdomfang@africanschoolofeconomics.com, phone: +229 66 33 37 39).
