Amanda Langhorst on Quality Programs at CBSM



 

Whether in the classroom or online, programs offered at CBSM are of the highest quality. CBSM is the only business school in the state with both business accreditation and specialized accounting accreditation from the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business International, a highly sought-after dual accreditation that has only been attained by approximately 1.5% of AACSB universities worldwide. Several classes are Quality Matters certified, meaning they are well designed, engaging online courses that have been reviewed and meet national standards. CBSM classes prepare 成人影片 for the workforce through projects like developing actual business plans and through clear links between classroom concepts and their real-world applications.

Amanda Langhorst, director of CBSM's Applied Management program, shares details about a peer mentoring program recently introduced at CBSM:



"At CBSM, we go the extra mile for our 成人影片 to help them succeed in the classroom, in the workforce and in life. In fall 2020, the CBSM Peer Mentoring program was launched, which matches experienced 成人影片 with new 成人影片 in the college. The program provides weekly tips for success and encourages 成人影片 to connect at least three times per semester. Participants report a stronger sense of connection with fellow 成人影片 and also describe the program as an excellent outlet to engage with peers, especially for online 成人影片.

Mentorship is a unique coaching relationship. It allows 成人影片 to ask questions in a setting that differs from typical student-to-student conversations in class, or student-to-faculty conversations. The mentor isn鈥檛 expected to have all the answers but can share their experiences and connect mentees to resources. For the mentors, it allows the opportunity to share their successes and struggles, and to support the growth of a fellow student. By serving as a peer mentor, 成人影片 build the in-demand soft skills employers want."
