Research Approach

The authors drew on interviews, state policies, written reports, research literature, and other relevant sources for this analysis.

More specifically, they:

  1. Conducted biannual interviews with participants in the University Principal Preparation Initiative
  2. Interviewed state-level stakeholders across the seven states participating in the initiative
  3. Reviewed other relevant data, such as state plans, state licensure requirements, state legislation, reports from state departments of education, and research literature on school leadership.
