The Auropean Affinity Group (EAG) of AACSB International got together in conjunction with the AACSB International Conference and Annual Meeting in the spectacular surroundings of Honolulu, Hawaii. Our theme this time was "The Value of Accreditation", and especially the effects of accreditation in developing the business school functions. In addition, we got to hear and discuss AACSB:s Data Direct -functions and the new European GDPR requirements. The next meeting will be in conjunction with the AACSB European conference in Paris this autumn.
