Impetus for Committee - September 2017 • A CAPS-I committee, the K to 12 International Education Leadership Competencies Committee was established for the 2017-2018 year to explore areas of responsibility and the associated leadership competencies that could be used when hiring or creating International Education leadership positions within K to 12 school districts/boards across Canada.
Goals of Committee The CAPS-I executive committee determined that a report on international program leadership competencies would be beneficial for: • 1) CAPS-I member school district/boards • 2) school districts/boards senior leadership and human resource departments
Big Question … • What do you guys do anyway?
Areas of Responsibility • Six detailed job descriptions were collected from CAPS-I members. • In February 2018, the committee used one description as the baseline document then went through each of the line items of the others and added to the document if not already included, creating additional sections as necessary.
Areas of Responsibility • Each area of responsibility was placed under the appropriate category and duplicates combined or eliminated. • The document was distributed to committee members for feedback in February, March, April 2018.
