IMA Seeking Submissions for New Teaching Case Conference

The Management Accounting Teaching Case Conference will be held on Sept. 23-24, 2016, at the historic Emily Morgan Hotel in downtown San Antonio, Texas. During the conference, attendees will receive in-depth instruction in teaching four different cases, ranging from introductory to advanced and MBA levels of management accounting.

Case submissions for the conference will be accepted through June 1, 2016. They should be submitted (along with teaching notes) in electronic form to Tom Albright at tlalbrig@nps.edu.

Cases will be considered for conference acceptance by the IMA Educational Case Journal (IECJ) Editorial Review Board. Please note: The organizing committee prefers (but does not require) practitioner involvement as coauthor and presenter. Accepted cases will be forwarded to the IMA first-round review at the IECJ, should the author wish to have his/her case considered for publication by the journal. If accepted for publication in the IECJ, authors will have the opportunity to modify their original documents to meet publication guidelines.

Authors will be notified of conference acceptance by July 15, 2016. Accepted cases will be considered for the IMA “Best Case Award,” which will be presented at the conference and includes a $500 cash award. The winner of the Best Case Award also will be recognized and asked to present the case at the January 2017 AAA-MAS Mid-year Conference in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
