Since 2015, the organization has been listed on Jeffrey Beall's list of "potential, possible, or probable predatory scholarly open-access publishers".

History

In 1994, Jim and JoAnn Carland formed a not for profit corporation called the International Academy for Case Studies, which launched the Journal of the International Academy for Case Studies. In 1995 they formed another not for profit corporation called the Academy of Entrepreneurship, which published the Academy of Entrepreneurship Journal and the Entrepreneurial Executive. In 1996, the Allied Academies was formed to oversee the affiliated academies. Since then new Academies and journals have been added.[10]

In 2015, Allied Academies was added to Jeffrey Beall's list of predatory publishers.[11]
