The evaluation of higher education has become a new focus for both federal and state level leaders, particularly within the executive branch of government. How to best evaluate the contributions of higher education, however, is hotly contested. Within the subfield of educational leadership preparation a variety of options have been put forth, including the survey work fostered by UCEA and the LTEL SIG. This session will share and discuss a variety of approaches to the evaluation of educational leadership preparation and how this information could be used to foster program improvement.
