European Leaders' Training in Education (ELTE)<br />
Comenius Multilateral Project<br />
Thematic Field: Teaching professions<br />
Institutions involved:<br />
Hogeschool Van Arnhem En Nijmegen (NL); Akdeniz Üniversitesi Egitim Fakültesi (TR);<br />
Umeå Universitet (SE); Latvijas Universitate (LV); Pedagogiko Institouto Kiprou (CY)<br />
Coordinating institution:<br />
University of Education in Upper Austria (Austria)<br />
Key words: School leadership<br />
Description:<br />
The most important outcome and the core of the ELTE programme is the 30<br />
European credits' training programme for leading personnel which was produced<br />
as a handbook.<br />
Another result is the implementation of the ELTE curriculum. In Linz, Austria the<br />
whole ELTE curriculum will be implemented in a Master's Programme starting in the<br />
summer semester 2011 which is called “Educational Management and School<br />
Development” (in German “Bildungsmanagement und Schulentwicklung”).<br />
This was possible after introducing and discussing the ELTE handbook with the rector<br />
and vice rectors of the University of Education in Upper Austria and after approval by<br />
the study commission. In Riga, Latvia the ELTE curriculum will also be implemented in<br />
a similar Master's Programme dealing with educational leadership. In Umeå,<br />
Sweden, parts of the ELTE curriculum are already implemented in principals' in-service<br />
activities. In Antalya, Turkey, there are considerations and good chances to implement<br />
the ELTE curriculum in an existing doctoral study programme in the area of<br />
educational management. In the Netherlands it is up to the community and the<br />
schools to offer principals' training courses.<br />
According to the consortium the added value of the whole partnership can be seen in<br />
the process of learning from each other. All institutions are experts in the area of<br />
principals' training. All countries have different systems of training and partners found<br />
it interesting to realise the different approaches of the methodology used in the<br />
modules.<br />
