EDINEB is preparing a new publication platform for its members. In close cooperation with Springer / Social Sciences (http://www.springer.com/) we are preparing the launch of a new book series which will be published as hard cover and e-book. This initiative replaces the current book series "Educational Innovation in Economics and Business" and builds further on the experiences with this publication platform. Our new series with the working title "Advances in Business Education" serves as an international forum for scholarly and state-of-the-art research and development into all aspects of business science education. It provides both educators and researchers with a unique opportunity to publish their work about best practices, empirical studies, and scholarly reviews. We would like to invite as well HR-professionals and professionals in the field of Learning and Development to contribute about learning programs in corporate training, and change practices in organizations.

We encourage submission of new ideas for Business Education (Graduate & Undergraduate), and Training & Development in Corporate Training. Advances in the field of Business Education can only occur when professionals rethink and examine their field of practice. Our new initiative aims to work in this spirit.

During start-up we aim to deliver at least one volume per year. Our new series invites contributions from EDINEB members, conference contributors, and anyone interested to submit scholarly or state-of-the-art research in field of Business Education or Training & Development. Members of the EDINEB Network will receive one free copy per year as part of their membership.

We are looking for nominations to serve in one of the following roles:

• Editor(s), responsible for editorial management of the new series
• Members Editorial Board, responsible for developing publication ideas
• Reviewers, responsible for reviewing submissions to the book series.

If you are interested to serve in one of these roles, or if you would like to nominate persons please send an email to Wim Gijselaers: W.Gijselaers@EDUC.UNIMAAS.NL before <st1:date year="2006" day="15" month="10">October 15^th, 2006</st1:date>. Please include your publication record plus a short motivation why you want to serve in one these roles.
