Description
This study addressed the problem of identifying
competencies needed by educational administrators in order
to assess the learning needs of adults in a community.
The study identified thirty-two competencies which may be
appropriate for inclusion in professional development programs
or literature for educational administrators.
Educational administrators who were known to design
and implement adult education programs based on assessed
learning needs of adults in their communities were selected
to provide data for this study . Eighty-eight of Florida's
educational administrators were invited to participate by
completing two questionnaires mailed to them on two occasions.
They were selected by thirty educators who were
knowledgeable of these programs from a regional or state-
wide perspective. Two conclusions were drawn from the results of this
study. It was concluded that competencies needed by
educational administrators to assess the learning needs
of adults in a community were identified. This conclusion
was drawn and evidenced by the list of competencies
developed through the application of the proposed research
method.
Secondly, it was concluded there was consensus
regarding the competencies among the group of educational
administrators participating in this study.
