Over the past five to ten years the growing demand nationally for a
"new breed" of educational leaders has resulted in new and
restructured Educational Leadership programs. The students in many
of these programs are part-time with substantial full-time job
responsibilities in a leadership position. The traditional doctoral
program design and student experience has not-indeed cannot-meet
the needs of this population. Frequently the result is a frustrated
student who leaves without completing the degree. This frustration
is often born of an inability on the part of the institution and
academic program to create a flexible set of learning experiences
that meet both the student's professional goals and the
institution's goals for academic excellence. The purpose of
Full-Time Leaders/Part-Time Learners is to present a design for
doctoral programs that recognizes the unique needs of the full-time
leader/part-time learner with multiple priorities of a demanding
leadership position and the equally demanding expectations of a
doctoral program. Will be of interest to higher education faculty
who serve doctoral students in leadership preparation programs.
