Study confirms importance of university leadership programmes

Analysis of programmes finds there is “generally little or no” financial support for them

University leadership programmes are “crucial” to modern higher education systems, an analysis by an EU-funded project has found.

The analysis was carried out by the Newlead project, which has received funding from the EU’s Erasmus+ academic mobility programme to build the leadership capacity of university heads, and was published by the European University Association, which is a member of the project consortium.
