The basic purpose of the study described here was the identification of competencies (skills) of principals of normal schools in Turkey in order to put together effective competency-based training programs for school administrators. Competencies were identified and ranked according to evaluations (perceptions) of the principals themselves, their teachers, and their supervisors. An evaluative model generated data intended for use in job analysis and administrator selection, appointment, and promotion. The methodology and model utilized in this study can be used for comparative analysis, since it involves common competencies in administrative processes. (Author)
