Abstract: The authors propose a reasonable linkage between information systems (IS) curriculum accreditation and the IS 2002 model curriculum by mapping the learning units of IS 2002 into the six IS core areas defined by IS curriculum accreditation guidelines. The implication of the mapping is to facilitate a straightforward aggregation of bottom-up, outcome-based course assessment data for use in curriculum accreditation.
