Abstract

Because of new publication requirements imposed as a result of an accreditation candidacy, all business school faculty at a Utah college are now required to publish. Many have no previous education or experience in scholarly research, writing, or publishing and do not have terminal degrees. The purpose of this paper is to discuss a scholarly writing course designed for these faculty members as they began scholarly publishing efforts. This article presents information about the course content and structure, challenges, successes, and instructor and participant reflections.
