Human Resources for Educators

Human Resources Administration: Personnel Issues and Needs in Education (4th Edition) This book is used in a principal certification program at a 4 year graduate school. The text is current and covers all of the issues that educators at any point in their careers must muddle through. It offers 3 short case studies at the end of each chapter and a summary of the chapter. Each chapter has clear learning objectives,with tables and charts that are easy to understand. I would recommend this book to all graduate students in education, as it covers not only school districts, but also issues such as evaluations, strategic planning, collective bargaining and compensation issues. It tells about the legal authority for states to act on behalf of the community in educating its children in public schools. I believe it is a thorough and cogent book that will assist professors with scenarios about real life work as principals.
