Academic Leadership Challenges- Ensuring Relevance in The Work Integrated Learning Space
AbstractThis paper will consider how Academic Leadership models are able to create a relationship between academia/learning and industry as well as work integrated learning, without compromising the pursuit and development of academia. Ensuring that practical tasks and opportunities safeguard the transfer of knowledge into practice and ensures a credible validation of learning and its relationship with the workplace. Public and Private institutions need to partner with industry to ensure that all role-players, regardless of the funding model of the institution, manage the challenges noted. It is therefore critical that Academic Leadership within an academic institution is bound by a best practice model guideline.
