About UCEA

Welcome to UCEA!

The University Council for Educational Administration (UCEA) is an international consortium of prestigious research universities committed to advancing the preparation and practice of educational leaders for the benefit of children, schools and society. UCEA, as a consortium, symbolizes an important aspiration--advancing significantly the field of educational  leadership through inter-institutional cooperation, communication, and contribution.



UCEA works with its institutional members and other educational partners to improve the preparation of educational leaders and promote the development of professional knowledge on educational leadership and school improvement. Over the past few years UCEA and its member faculty have focused keenly on increasing the quality and amount of research focused on leadership preparation.  As a result of these efforts, UCEA has supported research initiatives, developed the Journal of Research on Leadership Education, published the International Handbook on the Preparation and Development of School Leaders and the Handbook of Research on the Development of School Leaders in the United States, and has created a program evaluation and technical assistance service to support preparation program improvement and further knowledge development in the field.

 

 

UCEA welcomes your involvement in these and other initiatives, which are helping to shape the future of educational leadership.
