The AHEAD Course Guide is intended to serve as a: 1) sourcebook for the instructor, facilitator, and trainee; 2) major reference for basic higher education and management concepts and applications derived from real-life experience both by the trainees and instructors. It may be used as a springboard for elaborating specific experiences, citing examples, and performing hands-on exercises.
For greater focus and efficiency, the course guide has adopted its own course framework, which is divided into four major parts, namely: 1) Dimensions of Higher Education Administration, 2) Resource Generation and Management, 3) Enhancing and sustaining quality of Higher Education, and 4) Evaluation in Higher Education. The framework spells the basic ingredients of education administration as well as how they interrelate with each other and how each one affects the other.
