Abstract

There is great variation in the competencies required by states that certify individuals as special education administrators. Approximately one-half of all states require separate certification competencies for special education administrators as compared to general education administrators. Special education directors in the state of Colorado, a state that requires separate certification, were asked to rank 16 competency statements that comprise the state-approved endorsement program for special education directors. The results were analyzed in terms of agency type, size, and population density. Implications are discussed for the various significant differences identified.
