Atlantic City Economic Alliance (ACEA) The ACEA has retained the COB to create a workforce development throughput model and overall economic model for their proposed Aviation Training Academy of the Future (ATAF). The ATAF will serve the first-ever aviation district in New Jersey. Parties interested in the new ATAF include Spirit Airlines, Jet East, the Federal Aviation Administration and the United States Air Force 305th and 177th. The final product was delivered in August, and the COB is now working through promotion of the product and next steps. Institute for Supply Management (ISM) ISM has agreed to support the alignment of the COB’s Bachelor of Science in Logistics and Supply Chain Management (BSLSCM) and Master of Science in Logistics and Supply Chain Management (MSLSCM) programs around the ISM supply chain capability model. ISM makes materials available to our students that are not available to the public, and immersion in the ISM framework provides students with a head start in managing supply chains using this innovative process improvement model. PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) The COB is appreciative of PwC’s Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) practice group, who has helped to make our ERM offerings stronger with deeper insight into best practices, industry needs and forward-thinking guidance. The PwC team was led by Sean Torcasi (partner) and joined by three senior consultants — Hannah Murray, Zachary Caplan and Tisha Haque. Project Management Institute (PMI) PMI’s Global Accreditation Center has accredited the B.S., M.S. and certificate programs. Students who graduate with degrees accredited by PMI enjoy additional recognition by this important industry body. We are also currently working on our own aviation project management framework. SAP/Infosys Students can earn a student recognition award through the SAP University Alliance Program. This program allows students who are enrolled in a three-course sequence within either the BSLSCM or the MSLSCM to earn an industry- aligned award. Students who earn the award are eligible to interview with Infosys for opportunities for employment within this major SAP consulting firm.
SAS The Master of Science in Management Information Systems, the Certificate in Business Intelligence and Analytics and the Bachelor of Science in Business Analytics remain SAS Tier 3 approved, the highest SAS tier level with the most stringent standard. Students who complete any of these three SAS-approved pathways will receive a co-branded SAS/ Embry-Riddle badge showcasing the skills accomplishment.
