Journal
Access: The Journal of the National Association of Branch Campus Administrators 
Access is a biannually published peer-reviewed journal committed to publishing traditional scholarly research articles, literature reviews, case studies, best practice articles, and opinion pieces. Written by and for administrators, staff, faculty, and other stakeholders from higher education satellite campus locations, the journal provides professional development, information, and research.
Research Results
Research is a critical component of service to NABCA members. The NABCA Research Committee continues to identify common and unique facets of branch, regional, and satellite campus administration.
The NABCA Research Committee is responsible for scholarly activities related to branch, regional, and satellite campuses. The committee monitors the research forum, identifies research articles and bibliography materials, and oversees all official research publications for NABCA Member use. The Committee welcomes inquiries from NABCA Members and others who are planning branch campus related projects. If you would like to invite Members to pre-test your survey or interview questions, complete an Online survey, or volunteer to be interviewed, we encourage you to send your request to the NABCA Research Committee.
