Educational Leadership Constituent Council (ELCC) Standards Development

The Educational Leadership Constituent Council (ELCC) Standards are provided as a set of research based standards that give future administrators a set of guidelines to use in their future career as a school administrator. These standards will afford future administrators the ability to become strong proficient leaders through their use and implementation. The courses I have participated in were based on these standards and have proved invaluable while completing the requirements for this Specialist in Educational Leadership degree. The ELCC standards will provide the guiding principles needed in achieving school and district goals within the school.
