It appears that the AACSB accreditation process is seriously moving into the international business domain. We are also seeing an awakening in the political arena. A Republican administration is much more likely to remove some of the export disincentives that have gradually been placed in the way of American Multinational Corporations in their efforts to increase export sales. This interest in international business is a very good sign which seems to indicate an increase is quite likely in our College enrollment in the general area of international business. The author of this article has been involved with an experiential course offering (A Traveling Seminar) in the area of international marketing and international management for the past six years. The article will highlight some observations about such programs and attempt to pass along a few recommendations for those that might be considering similar course offerings out- side the United States.
