Academic Leadership for Professional Competency of Institution

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to gauge the academic leadership skills of administrators in a subset of India's higher education institutions (SSHEIs). The study also hopes to learn more about the gender gap in SSHEIs' ALC (academic leadership competencies). The data for this research was gathered using a quantitative approach. The questionnaire utilized by the researchers has 29 questions. Although there is a correlation between the background factors of college location and elective choice, there is a substantial variation in academic performance among pre-service teachers in colleges of education affiliated with Kerala University. Those who majored in the arts at college scored higher than those who majored in the sciences at college (67.90 vs. 65.60), while those who majored in the sciences at college scored higher than those who majored in the arts (68.10). Staff at SSHEIs in Kerala Province were sent the survey at random. The results also showed that the average ALC score varied considerably by gender among college students. This data suggested that men academic leaders had higher levels of LC than their female counterparts.
