Abstract

Lietuvos švietimo integracija į Europos Sąjungos švietimo erdvę kelia naujus reikalavimus profesinių mokyklų vadovams. Svarbiausias kaitos procesų veiksnys profesinėse mokyklose-aukščiausios kvalifikacijos vadybos specialistai (vadovai), turintys reikiamų žinių ir įgūdžių, kompetetingi, nuolat tobulinantys savo kvalifikaciją bei vadybinius gebėjimus. Siekiant švietimo kokybės pastaruoju metu iškyla būtinybė ugdyti profesinės mokyklos vadovų vadybinę kompetenciją. Profesinės mokyklos, jų vadovai moksliniuose tiriamuosiuose darbuose nėra minimi, neištyrinėta jų vadybinės kompetencijos raiška vadybinėje švietimo veikloje. Profesinių mokyklų vadovų vadybinių kompetencijų tyrimu siekiama išanalizuoti kompetencijas ir jų raišką vadybinėje veikloje, išsiaiškinti su kokiomis pagrindinėmis problemomis susiduria šiuolaikinių profesinių mokyklų vadovai dirbdami vadybinį darbą.
