An Interscholastic Live Case Competition Series
What is the IACBE Case Competition Series?
For the past 6 years, CapSource has served as IACBE’s trusted partner for experiential learning. We’ve been working together to provide IACBE member and non-member institutions with a way to challenge their students through a Live Case Competition. This approach allows our shared network of schools to test out our high-impact experiential learning technology while enabling IACBE to incorporate students into the annual conference in a way that helps them develop professionally.
About the IACBE Partnership
The International Accreditation Council for Business Education (IACBE) ensures academic quality at over 235 leading business schools around the globe. IACBE partnered with Capsource to provide their network and business schools with a taste of high impact Experiential Learning.
