[AISWorld] Call for feedback regarding the MSIS 2016 revision process

[Heikki Topi]

Dear Colleagues:

The joint ACM/AIS MSIS 2016 task force would like to thank all of the
members of the IS community who provided feedback to the task force during
the Summer 2015 conferences (ECIS, PACIS, and AMCIS). The panel discussions
and the feedback we received after the panels were very helpful. Thank you
-- please keep the comments coming!

We also would like to remind all members of the IS community of the
opportunity to review and provide feedback on the task force's first public
deliverable. The document is available at the project's website
www.msis2016.org; you can also provide feedback on this same site or e-mail
any one of the task force members. Please see below for the original call
for feedback.

Thank you in advance for your comments!

With best regards,

Heikki Topi (htopi at bentley.edu) and Eija Karsten (ekarsten at abo.fi), task
force co-chairs

=====================================================================================

The joint ACM/AIS MSIS 2016 task force was established in late 2014 to
review and revise the master’s level curriculum recommendation in
Information Systems (MSIS 2006). The task force is pleased to announce that
its first public deliverable is now available for your review and feedback.
This document is a position paper that describes the project’s background
and context and outlines the task force’s current thinking regarding the
project’s direction.

The document is available at the project’s website www.msis2016.org, which
also provides you with directions regarding the ways in which you can
provide feedback to the task force and a link to a survey targeted to
various MSIS stakeholder groups, including faculty. We greatly appreciate
your feedback on the document and survey responses regarding MSIS expected
competences and curriculum topics!

Thank you in advance for being part of this important process!
