Editorial Control

From IS Curriculum

Jump to: navigation, search

To maintain the integrity of the curriculum, it is essential to develop an editorial process for reviewing and approving suggested changes to the curriculum. The editorial process could include the following roles:

  • Executive Committee named by the participating organizations
  • Editor-in-Chief (EIC)
  • Associate Editors of various areas (e.g., courses, topics, career tracks, domain areas)


The Editor-in-Chief would have the following responsibilities:

  • Approving or rejecting changes, with consultation with the executive committee
  • Managing the AEs' approvals to assure fairness and balance
  • Ensuring that changes reflect the best interests of the overall curriculum
  • Reporting to ACM / AIS status on annual basis
  • Submitting new model (major revisions) to cooperating organization (AIS & ACM) every 5 years for a 5 year blanket approval (or whatever cycle length is deemed optimal by the committee)
  • Producing one published (frozen) version per year that is approved by curriculum committee


The ultimate oversight of the process would be the responsibility of the Executive Committee.
