Our History
Association Global View was first founded in the Spring of 1996 as an educational Nonprofit organization to deliver an online multi-university business simulation.

Driven by the success of the original simulation program, AGV staff and collaborating professors worked to create a complimentary Introduction to Business program.

Unaffiliated with any single academic institution, AGV has grown solely through its publicly supported programs.

Dr. Dennis Schlais and Dr. Paul Kinney, founders of the program, were firm believers in the benefits of hands-on, experiential learning. In donating their work and effort to the Association, they brought this fundamental focus as well.

Since its conception, Association Global View has grown through international collaboration. Today, AGV remains very loyal to the concept of global community building.

Our Future
AGV continues each year to build collaborative links between universities, professors and students. Because concern for the student learning process is at the heart of AGV, curriculum development and research is of extreme importance.

Each new project that AGV undertakes is a collaborative effort of professors from institutions around the globe. Product improvement is also directed by the academic minds utilizing the simulations, ensuring the best in educational quality and an international perspective in all AGV programs.

Our Purpose
The purpose of Association Global View is to design, implement, and facilitate innovative educational programs specializing in high technology delivery of curriculum at globally linked sites. AGV strives to connect educational institutions to create a learning environment which surpasses what any single institution can accomplish alone. When applicable, AGV also works to link the academic and business communities in collaborative, beneficial relationships.

Educational Goals
AGV believes that education must keep pace with technological innovations and global societal development. It is also our belief that learning is best accomplished through hands-on experience. To this end we continually work to ensure that our programs provide experiential learning, as well as cross cultural communication. In cooperation with local and international businesses, and in collaboration with the best minds in the academic community, each program we create aims at providing a cutting edge learning environment.
