PRME At CBPA What Is it? What Value does it Create? How do we Embed it into our Culture?
PRME -- SUMMARY What is it? The Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME) initiative was launched in in 2007 as an initiative of six academic institutions (including AACSB International) and the United Nations Global Compact. The principles were created by an international taskforce of 60 deans, university presidents and official representatives of leading business schools and academic institutions. It is proposed that the CBPA become a signatory to PRME.
