What Is it? What Value does it Create? How do we Embed it into our Culture?

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. PRME -- SUMMARY

We teach CONSCIOUS CAPITALISM Via the PRME Norms that we have Implanted Into all Aspects of our CBPA Educational Value Chain THE CBPA WAY!

What Value does PRME Create for our Students? PRME seeks to establish a process of continuous improvement among institutions of management education in order to develop in our students, a new generation of business leaders. PRME's mission is to inspire and champion ethical and responsible management education, research, and thought for global leadership that takes into account the Triple Bottom Line of people, the planet and profits. BACKGROUND

Signalling our Commitment: By making a commitment to adopt the principles, the College of Business and Public Administration (CBPA) and California State University at San Bernardino (CSUSB) would be signalling their intent to continue to integrate sustainability values into our curriculum, research and community engagement activities, wherever it makes sense to do so. COMMITMENT BY CBPA & CSUSB
