Opis

Growing discontent with the performance of educational institutions is common in the USA today and little is being done to address the real problem - that of the need to reform and restructure the entire educational system. A key issue in this reform is the training and development of leaders in educational administration; as experienced leaders retire, so new professionals are called to assume the mantle of the old hands and vital new opportunities exist for those willing to take up the challenge.
