“…Universities disclose that accreditations bring benefits, including improving the quality of learning activities, improving the school’s reputation and enhancing the internal quality of the school. Accreditation improves the quality of the students as well because it supports the development of the lecturers (Michelli and Eldridge, 2016, p. 238). As a quality assessor, accreditation guarantees the quality of the schools through their transparent accreditation results; hence, the schools gain international and national recognition because of the significant position of the accreditation agencies (Acevedo-De-los-Ríos and Rondinel-Oviedo, 2022, pp.…”

Purpose This study aims to identify the strategic leadership and change management used to obtain the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) accreditations as well as the research development on AACSB in the past decade. Design/methodology/approach This study used a systematic literature review following Petticrew and Roberts’ study. The articles were limited to empirical studies published from 2013 to 2022, taken from the Dimensions AI database. Findings The findings suggested that two leadership styles were used to obtain AACSB accreditation: dominance-oriented transformational and financial leadership, alongside three traits of academic leaders: commitment, engagement and encouragement. Additionally, three change management models/processes were found in the articles: teaching evaluation framework, temporary isomorphism and authenticity. Finally, they discovered that the object of the studies on AACSB accreditation had been narrowed down from the organizational level to smaller objects consisting of schools’ identity, teaching, learning and business schools’ key players. Research limitations/implications As this study only used Dimensions AI, potential articles related to the topic outside the database could not be obtained. Thus, it limits the scope of the findings of this paper. Practical implications This study informs academic leaders in business schools about the role of strategic leadership and change management in obtaining AACSB accreditation. Originality/value Through a systematic scoping review, this study presented a decade of research development on AACSB in addition to the strategic leadership and change management needed to obtain it.

“…To fight for the policies that are best for students and for the education profession, educators must first understand the policies in place, the processes by which they are made, and the people who make them. Only with a full comprehension of the current legislation can music teachers and those in the education field begin to (a) formulate opinions on existing policies, (b) explore alternatives, and (c) defend their positions with data (Michelli, 2005).…”

A nationwide sample of undergraduate music education majors (N = 260; 69% completion rate) completed an electronic survey to determine awareness of music and general education policy and advocacy efforts. Students reported concern with the impact of policy on school music programs and their future careers. They were informed about music education policy issues at the state level but less so at national and local levels. Although respondents indicated involvement with professional associations, they rarely or never participated in policy initiatives. Methods courses provided policy information; professional organizations effectively convey policy information to undergraduates. NAfME Collegiate chapters offer music and general education policy-based activities, though many respondents were uninformed of their chapters' efforts. Students were unfamiliar with key buzzwords, people, and acronyms of present-day education policy. Involving students in educational policy endeavors will equip them with a knowledge base from which to speak and act, securing the future of music education.

“…Indeed, understanding how to best prepare current and future teachers to teach students from diverse backgrounds and with diverse academic needs is one of the most compelling challenges facing teacher educators today (Futrell, Gomez, & Bedden, 2003;Hollins & Guzman, 2005;Sobel & Taylor, 2005). The matter has far-reaching implications across the realms of teacher education politics, policy, and practice (Cochran-Smith, 2005;Mitchelli, 2005).…”
