Teachers play a crucial role in improving the quality of education, an essential aspect of national education development, which applies universally in various cultures and countries. As national education standards and needs increase, educational development becomes a necessity. This study seeks to investigate the enhancement of teacher quality dimensions to elevate national education standards, employing a case study approach with mixed methods. The sampling involved random selection from five senior high schools in Lampung, comprising 190 students and 10 teachers. Data collection was carried out through questionnaires, interviews, and document analysis. The analysis of questionnaire data utilized structural equation modeling (SEM) through Lisrel 8.50 assistance. The qualitative phase encompassed data reduction, presentation, conclusion drawing, and verification. Results indicate that the model fits well with a Satorra-Bentler scaled Chi-square value of 189.190, a p-value coefficient of 0.070 (>0.05), root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) of 0.030 (<0.080), and comparative fit index (CFI)≥0.90, suggesting its acceptability. The assessment of teachers' professional management in enhancing education quality focuses on preparation, implementation, and evaluation, offering significant potential for improving senior high school teachers' quality.

This research utilizes intellectual data analysis to deepen insights into educational dynamics by examining university professors' behavioral responses to education management amidst socioeconomic uncertainty. The study applied sophisticated regression and cluster analysis tools to sociological survey data, focusing on professors' attitudes toward distance education. The survey assessed perceptions of its advantages and disadvantages, aiming to uncover factors influencing professors' inclinations toward this mode of teaching. Results revealed six distinct behavioral "profiles" or clusters of professors, each with unique responses to distance education. These insights guide recommendations for educational policy priorities aimed at addressing weaknesses in education management. Key strategies proposed include forming databases of behavioral responses and employing algorithms for deep intellectual analysis. Such measures intend to align educational practices with the values, welfare needs, and communication preferences of the scholarly community, thereby enhancing their propensity for distance education. The study concludes that a higher level of academic engagement in distance education can be achieved by tailoring educational strategies to the specific needs and values of different professor groups. This approach promises to improve the effectiveness of education management and the overall quality of education, benefiting both professors and students by creating a more supportive and effective teaching environment.

The study reveals that in the countries where the SCS approach has been applied, early school leavers' rates are going down.

This research aims to test the dimensions of success in measuring leadership management and to find the factors that shape leadership in an excellent Islamic university (IU). Respondents totaled 422 participants from leaders and lecturers at six Islamic universities in Indonesia. partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) analysis is used to test 8 dimensions, 35 constructs, and 17 hypotheses. Management leadership is determined by the dominant factor, namely job evaluation (IM4, λ=90.70%), and human resources (OR3, λ=74.40%) is the lowest factor. The ability of the structural model to explain the measurement of IU’s leadership management is 79.70%. Furthermore, the 17 hypotheses from 8 dimensions have a positive and significant influence. Measurable dimensions can be used to develop an effective management model to increase the performance and function of leadership. Through the results of this research, higher education management institutions can recommend study substances to comprehensively find out the leadership model to be applied by leaders so they are more skilled and expert in managing institutions in higher education.

This study is a qualitative investigation of education policies and decision making during COVID-19 pandemic in five Middle East and North Africa Region (MENA) countries: Kuwait, Lebanon, Morocco, Palestine, and Qatar. It aims at scrutinizing how these countries responded to the education disruption caused by the pandemic between February 2020 and July 2021 and how they managed the resulting turbulence. We also investigate the extent to which these decisions were equitable and innovative. Data were collected from Ministerial notes, media content, and international organizations reports about the situation of education in the region. Walt and Gilson’s (1994) policy analysis triangle and the Cynefin framework (Kurtz & Snowden, 2003) guided the objectives and the analysis of the data. Findings revealed that these countries muddled through the education policy at the beginning of the pandemic, centralized decision making, and faced difficulties to implement online and distance learning. In the second phase, most of these countries tried to save education, but were halted by structural challenges. Some differences were witnessed among these countries in how they have dealt with the evolving crisis. However, some similarities have also been noticed at the levels of context, process and actors. The decisions taken often lacked innovation and led to less equitable outcomes. The discussion of the findings has some implications for education policy and education management in turbulent times in the MENA region. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study aims to test the validity and reliability of instruments measuring the variable of innovation capacity in the management system of Islamic boarding school education institutions in Jambi City. This research method employed a cross-sectional survey design with a quantitative approach. The sample size for this study consisted of 162 teachers (Ustad/Ustadzah) in Islamic boarding school education institutions. Quantitative data were analyzed using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) using SPSS 23 and AMOS 18. The results of this study indicated that EFA identified five factor structures to construct the dimensions of Innovation Capacity (IC), namely Opportunity Exploration (OE), Idea Sustainability (IS), Idea Introduction (II), Idea Emergence (IE), and Idea Realization (IR). Meanwhile, these findings were verified and confirmed by CFA regarding the factorial validity analysis of the Innovation Capacity dimension from the EFA testing results. This study suggests that future innovation capacity instruments require further adjustment to enhance the level of reliability and the ability to explain differences related to the measured constructs within different contexts, cultures, and conditions.

This paper discusses dramaturgy and artistic research's evolving role in theatre education, focusing on the Master's programin Theatre at Oslo National Academy of the Arts as a case study. Drawing inspiration from Richard Jochum's ideas in "After Artistic Research," the paper highlights the shift towards incorporating artistic research into the curriculum of art universities. However, it acknowledges the challenges in establishing a clear framework for artistic research within these institutions. The author argues that teaching and practising dramaturgy and artistic research in theatre academies have significant implications, marking a departure from traditional theatre education paradigms. The paper aims to contribute valuable insights and practical strategies to educators and practitioners involved in theatre education and artistic research, emphasising the importance of understanding and navigating the complexities of this evolving field.

Fostering academic staff engagement through competency improvement stands together with the goals of sustainable development (in particular, sustainable development goal 4 - quality education). The current paper reflects the results of the piloting stage of the study among academic staff members representing Latvian higher education institutions. Participants were surveyed regarding the purpose of the study: to identify the attitude of academic staff to the need to regularly improve professional competence in changing conditions of the modern world and to determine a set of "cross-cutting skills" that need to be primarily improved. The obtained data serves as a basic prerequisite for an innovative competencies introduction policy in the Latvian HEIs and brings an original value to the research. The scientific problem of the article covers aspects of academic staff engagement in the innovative education process by enhancing its competencies. The novelty of the research is defined by the conclusions obtained during the pilot study survey analysis, aimed to analyse the survey's data regarding the academic staff's self-perceptions of their participation in the study process and their assumptions about how and which skills should be improved for teaching methods to become more innovative and teacher involvement in processes to increase. The research aims to determine the assumptions of the academic staff regarding the continuous improvement of academic staff competencies. The object of the research is an industry of higher education, the subject of the research - competencies improvement of the academic staff of Latvian higher education institutions. Research methods include descriptive statistics, literature review, and graphical visualization. The limitations of the research are related to its form - pilot study and the future research will include studies on fostering academic staff engagement in other countries of the region. The recommendations on academic staff engagement are provided in the conclusions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Job satisfaction is a very crucial correlate for a teacher to stay in their current teaching assignment. This study looks into the significant factors of job satisfaction and intention to stay of teachers in a private school. In addition, the study also aims to investigate the relationship between job satisfaction and intention to stay of private teachers. Using a complete enumeration process, 34 private teachers were interviewed and primary data were collected from them. Necessary statistical measures were employed to describe the data collected and the Chi-square test for association was used to determine the relationship between the factors of satisfaction and intention to stay. Results indicated that most of the private teachers are just moderately satisfied with their current job and about 55.88% of them are not willing to stay in their job. This implies that working in a private institution is challenging and does not have enough economic security. This Chi-square test revealed that job satisfaction of private teachers is influenced by their civil status (p-value=0.100) and employment status (p-value=0.100). Additionally, the factors that influence their willingness to stay are their age (p-value=0.100) and employment status (p-value=0.052). The study suggests that teachers must be given incentives and the right compensation to increase their satisfaction and intention to stay in a private school.

This study aims to examine the implementation of the school zoning system from a justice perspective. Through this research, we could understand how far social justice has been obtained during the zoning system's implementation and the future challenges. The research questions are: (1) Why did the government implement a zoning system? (2) How was the zoning system implemented? (3) How did school principals and history teachers respond to changes in student’s academic quality as a result of the application of the zoning system? The research was conducted qualitatively with a case study approach in the former residency area of Surakarta and the Special Province of Yogyakarta to answer the questions. The data was collected through document analysis, interviews, and observation. The results show that implementing the school zoning system in the New Students Admission was relatively successful in creating justice, especially in directing students to get schools based on their residence. The challenge occurred in the student's educational process. Principals and teachers lack understanding of the equity spirit that underlies the implementation of the school zoning system and gives equal treatment to all students. As a result, students with less prior academic ability will be left behind those with good or excellent prior academic skills. Further research that can be explored from the results of this study is to explore how the impact of the zoning system in other regions may have different results from the Surakarta and Yogyakarta regencies.

Neural network innovation has become widely employed in many spheres of society, including education, due to the rapid growth of today's global technologies and science. Promoting and interpreting wealth creation as a fundamental aspect is necessary. Education must implement efficiency of the management creation and use novel technological and scientific resources to increase the level of management of teaching in this circumstance. The level of management over education systems may also be effectively increased, complementing the framework to manage students' academic development. An adequate learning idea, a specific instructional orientation, higher academic inspiration, joy of knowledge, and a readiness to study are the qualities intended to be established in the students. Initially, the student data are collected. Further, preprocessing has been achieved by using the normalization technique. Next, a convolutional neural network is proposed as a method for evaluating a student educational management system that takes into account dynamic student behavior during online learning. Moreover, statistical methods such as ANOVA and chi-square test are employed for further analysis. Finally, the performance of the system has been evaluated. Thus, the effectiveness of the student educational management mechanism is analyzed well and effectively. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Educational management is the combination of human and material resources that supervises, plans, and responsibly executes an educational system with outcomes and consequences. However, when seeking improvements in interprofessional education and collaborative practice through the management of health professions, educational modules face significant obstacles and challenges. The primary goal of this study was to analyse data collected from discussion sessions and feedback from respondents concerning interprofessional education (IPE) management modules. Thus, this study used an explanatory and descriptive design to obtain responses from the selected group via a self-administered questionnaire and semi-structured interviews, and the results were limited to averages, i.e., frequency distributions and summary statistics. The results of this study reflect the positive responses from both subgroups and strongly support the further implementation of IPE in various aspects and continuing to improve and develop it. Four different artificial intelligence (AI) techniques were used to model interprofessional education improvement through educational management, using 20 questions from the questionnaire as the variables (19 input variables and 1 output variable). The modelling performance of the nonlinear and linear models could reliably predict the output in both the calibration and validation phases when considering the four performance metrics. These models were shown to be reliable tools for evaluating and modelling interprofessional education through educational management. Gaussian process regression (GPR) outperformed all the models in both the training and validation stages. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This research aims to analyze human resources based on Total Quality Management in improving management educational process. Total Quality Management (TQM) is an approach that focuses on quality in all aspects of an organization's operations, including human resources. In an educational context, this can help improve the effectiveness of the learning process and overall school management. This research uses qualitative research with a focus on Library Research. The data collection method is carried out through documentation. The data used is secondary data with data sources obtained from books and journals that discuss human resources, Total Quality Management and education management. Data analysis was carried out using Content Analysis. Based on the description, research results show that human resource analysis based on Total Quality Management (TQM) is important in improving the management educational process in educational institutions seen from the aspects of recruitment and selection, professional development, performance assessment, quality awareness, performance awards. The contribution of TQM in improving management educational processes is also very important from customer aspects (stakeholder) orientation, process understanding, continuous improvement, fact-based management, training and development, and systems approach. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that improving educational management requires good management so that educational goals are achieved. Apart from good management, adequate human resources are also needed so that they can carry out the existing educational vision and mission.

This research aims to discover the ideal concept of entrepreneurship education in higher education. The study employs a qualitative paradigm with descriptive survey techniques.

Compared to the preceding years, the Management of educators and education workers at the school or institution that was visited has started showing signs of improvement in their overall performance. The use of certification and the supply of benefits as a mechanism to increase educator welfare is beginning to function even though there are still specific inadequacies in the system.

In order to build an education information platform to support “industry-education dialogue” and at the same time serve the teaching and research of industry-education integration. In this paper, we use big data technology to construct a system of education management and resource optimization, supporting education construction in the context of industrial transformation and upgrading. For larger-scale WSNs, an energy-efficient data collection algorithm based on non-uniform clustering is proposed. To deal with large-scale optimization problems, a hybrid algorithm of genetic algorithms and particle optimization hierarchical collaboration is introduced. Then, the algorithm is applied to cluster WSNs, an adaptation function is constructed with the goal of equalizing energy consumption, and a data collection algorithm based on non-uniform clustering is proposed. The Apriori algorithm, which is based on the interest degree model, is used to mine the course evaluation data for the system design in the university industry-teaching fusion model. This system design does both course evaluation and resource optimization. The system’s total evaluation score is high, at 90.84 points. It also improves the efficiency of cooperation between the education industry and schools. It proves that the system’s design is effective and high-level and has a positive effect on teaching management and resource optimization in education.

Big data technology has brought new opportunities for the development of the education industry and can play a positive role in the management of student campus education. In this paper, the behavioral features in the extracted multi-source behavioral data of college students are dimensionality reduced using principal component analysis, and the behavioral features are clustered using density peak clustering and undersampling methods. The Adaboost algorithm is used to identify and classify each behavioral feature to obtain behavioral analysis data for students. Finally, the university’s education management system is constructed based on this behavioral analysis model. The behavioral analysis of students in a university shows that both consumption behavior and book borrowing behavior cluster into three categories. Among them, the type of students who clocked into the library with a medium frequency and borrowed the most number of books had the highest percentage (39.25%) among the students in this university. And there is about a 79.3% probability that students of the university with a high number of absences seldom visit the library. The study also showed that there was a significant difference (p

The principles and methods of human resource management have been introduced into the field of education for some time, but the analysis of the current state of research, specifically on educational management, is still insufficient. The first part of this paper analyzes the measures that are related to human resource management in education management reform in each sector and further investigates the factor analysis method in the public sector human resource management system. By constructing the factor analysis model and factor calculation method, we can provide an algorithmic basis for studying the role of public sector human resource management in education management reform. The article utilizes the factor analysis method to conduct an empirical study by using the educational resources of different schools in 11 cities of Province A as test objects. According to the study, the first principal component has seven-factor loadings that are higher than 0.72, which indicates that all seven factors have a positive impact on the allocation efficiency of higher vocational education. The second principal component has four-factor loadings greater than 0.80, suggesting that all four factors have a positive effect on the allocation efficiency output of higher vocational education. From the sample data of the school education resource allocation status of each city, it can be obtained that the school education resource allocation status of city A is the most favorable, with the highest overall score of 43,153.1, followed by city B and city D, with 25,431.9 and 12,136.4, respectively. This indicates that the education resource allocation effect of these three cities is better and belongs to the upstream level in province Z.

To cope with the problems existing in the education and Management of students in traditional colleges and universities, improve the management efficiency and realize the informatization of education management, this study proposes a set of optimization paths for the education and Management of students in colleges and universities. In this paper, an intelligent and diversified education management platform is constructed, aiming to strengthen the operation efficiency of the education management team in colleges and universities. By introducing a fuzzy evaluation algorithm to judge the educational management paths of college students and normalizing the input data, empirical evaluation results are derived. Comparative Analysis of the data in the study showed that the optimized educational management path significantly improved students’ daily behavior and mental health status. Students’ average daily online time was effectively controlled between 5.6 and 10.5 hours, the online period was more in line with the healthy work and rest, and the rates of disciplinary behaviors and Internet fraud victimization decreased respectively. At the same time, students’ mental health and learning effects were also improved. In summary, the education and management path for college students proposed in this paper significantly strengthens the management system and comprehensively cultivates students. It provides an effective informatization strategy for education management in colleges and universities.

In this paper, we first constructed a college education management system based on big data technology, clarified the system layout, analyzed the functional requirements of different personnel roles, and used the B/S development structure and mode to complete the layout and construction of hardware. Then, the evaluation model is established by using factor analysis and principal component analysis to calculate the eigenvalue, variance contribution rate and comprehensive score of each factor, and the evaluation index system is established. Finally, the effect of digital education management in colleges and universities is evaluated in terms of reliability, responsiveness, assurance and tangibility, and overall perceived quality. The scores of all dimensions are higher than 4, the student’s expectations are all in the range of 5-6.5, and the real perception is in the range of 4-5.5. Teachers’ expectations were in the range of 5-6 points, and their true perceptions were in the range of 4-5 points. Teachers and students are satisfied with the effectiveness of school management. This study has significance for educational reform as well as management upgrading in colleges and universities.

AbstractDecentralization is a means of enhancing the access, efficiency, effectiveness, and quality of educational services. However, no study has been carried about in the study area. Thus, the main purpose of this study is to assess the adequacy of capacity building and stakeholder involvement in decentralized education management in secondary schools in Enebsie Sarmider district, Ethiopia. With a parallel convergent mixed research design, data were collected through questionnaires, interviews, and document reviews from 187 multilevel participants. The study showed that the capacity of buildings in schools to implement and manage decentralization education is low. Stakeholders’ involvements in various management functions were moderate. Stakeholders’ involvement in organizing activities, such as Kebele (village), Education and Training Bureau and Parent-Teacher-Student-Association members, were rated low. This revealed that stakeholders did not fully carry out their functions and responsibilities given by rules. The most challenging factors affecting decentralized educational management are related to the availability of resources, decision-making process, budget for education, and skilled human resources. Based on the findings, this study has several practical implications for many stakeholders of education, such as the Ministry of Education and school administrators, to understand the adequacy, of organization capacity, and stakeholders’ involvement and associated challenges in decentralizing education. Particularly, the researchers recommend the right people in the right place, a proper budget for education, and facilitating the local decision-making process to diminish the challenges of decentralized educational management. This study has also theoretical implications to the literature about decentralization of education in the Ethiopia context.

Decentralization is a means of enhancing the access, efficiency, effectiveness, and quality of educational services. However, no study has been carried about in the study area. Thus, the main purpose of this study is to assess the adequacy of capacity building and stakeholder involvement in decentralized education management in secondary schools in Enebsie Sarmider district, Ethiopia. With a parallel convergent mixed research design, data were collected through questionnaires, interviews, and document reviews from 187 multilevel participants. The study showed that the capacity of buildings in schools to implement and manage decentralization education is low. Stakeholders' involvements in various management functions were moderate. Stakeholders' involvement in organizing activities, such as Kebele (village), Education and Training Bureau and Parent-Teacher-Student-Association members, were rated low. This revealed that stakeholders did not fully carry out their functions and responsibilities given by rules. The most challenging factors affecting decentralized educational management are related to the availability of resources, decision-making process, budget for education, and skilled human resources. Based on the findings, this study has several practical implications for many stakeholders of education, such as the Ministry of Education and school administrators, to understand the adequacy, of organization capacity, and stakeholders' involvement and associated challenges in decentralizing education. Particularly, the researchers recommend the right people in the right place, a proper budget for education, and facilitating the local decision-making process to diminish the challenges of decentralized educational management. This study has also theoretical implications to the literature about decentralization of education in the Ethiopia context. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purpose of this paper is to highlight the application of TQM in primary education (PE) by exploring teachers' views and, more specifically, by examining the impact of their demographic data on their attitude towards TQM. A study was conducted among teachers in Greek public primary schools with the aim being to investigate their views on seven TQM parameters. The study used a structured questionnaire that was positively evaluated for validity and reliability. In total, 2088 completed questionnaires were collected, and non-parametric tests were employed. The results reveal statistically significant differences among groups of respondents based on gender, job–position, educational level, age, and years of experience in PE, as well as geographical location of the school. The study provides real-time empirical evidence of TQM in PE, enriching the existing literature, which lacks empirical and validated data from the PE level. The data revealed by the study indicate differences in perception of the TQM concept and its application among the participants, and their response should be further analysed to explore the reasons that generate them and, thus, facilitate the initiation of TQM practices within a PE school environment.

Entrepreneurial Orientation (EO) has become increasingly prominent in the public sector and in educational organizations. A policy for educational management based on EO has dimensions related to innovation, proactiveness, and risk-taking, which are preceded by organizational characteristics such as management support, discretion/autonomy, rewards/recognition, organizational boundaries, and time availability. The objective of this study is to analyze the organizational characteristics that influence EO in Municipal Centers for Early Childhood Education (Centros Municipais de Educação Infantil - CEMEIs) in Brazil. The study was conducted in a town in the state of Minas Gerais and involved 15 CEMEIs, applying questionnaires to education professionals as coordinators, monitors, and teachers, whose data were processed using descriptive statistics and a structural equation model. The results present a construct for validating organizational characteristics that can influence EO in public early childhood education organizations. However, autonomy and management support were the determinants of EO in the organizations studied. Finally, there are implications and considerations for policies and strategies in public educational organizations, indicating EO as a way to deal with contingencies, resource scarcity, the stimulation of (intra)entrepreneurial culture and even potential early childhood education for entrepreneurship.

We adopted the method of knowledge mapping to conduct in-depth visualization to propose the construction method of knowledge mapping-based inference of a healthy operation index in higher education (HOI-HE). For the first part, an improved named entity identification and relationship extraction method is developed, incorporating a vision sensing pre-training algorithm named BERT. For the second part, a multi-decision model-based knowledge graph is used to infer the HOI-HE score by using a multi-classifier ensemble learning approach. The combination of two parts constitutes a vision sensing-enhanced knowledge graph method. The functional modules of knowledge extraction, relational reasoning and triadic quality evaluation are integrated to provide the digital evaluation platform for the HOI-HE value. The vision sensing-enhanced knowledge inference method for the HOI-HE is able to exceed the benefit of pure data-driven methods. The experimental results in some simulated scenes show that the proposed knowledge inference method can work well in the evaluation of a HOI-HE, as well as to discover some latent risk.

Many researchers point out that in the context of the digital transition, which is rapidly introducing all sectors of society, a flipped classroom is a necessary method to implement an outcome-based learning curriculum at the tertiary level to train prospective professionals who meet the needs of employers. Therefore, we believe that the basis for the successful introduction of learning is, firstly, to diagnose the student's learning style, and secondly, to determine the student's learning outcome in the 21st century based on 4Cs; being proficient communicators, creators, critical thinkers, and collaborators. By doing this, 41 second-year students from two different groups studying in Business Administration at Mandakh university were selected non-randomly and divided into three groups on the basis of their learning styles. The EFL learners’ task performance is evaluated with the criteria (information and discovery, idea design, innovation, delivering an oral presentation, engaging in conversations and discussions) on the basis of 4Cs principles as variables. According to the data, Visual learners' critical thinking, Kinesthetic learners' creativity, and Audio learners' communication skills are dominant. Overall, we expect that the need for new pedagogical approaches in English classrooms to enhance students' essential skills in the 21st century, the flipped learning approach where the direct instruction in class-time and homework are reversed, has recently received significant attention from many language teachers, educators, and researchers. In today’s academic world, one of the learning environments that have gained acceptance is the learning and teaching management system. A learning management system, also known as a virtual learning environment, course management system, or learning platform, is a collection of software tools and Web-based technology that support the organization, administration, delivery, monitoring, and management of online education and training programs as well as the evaluation of particular learning processes.

Urgency of the research The success of a higher education institution in the context of the transformation of the educational environment and the integration of the Ukrainian educational space into the European one depends on its capacity for investment practice. Thus, the effectiveness of the implementation of innovative projects or programs, the creation of a new educational product is largely determined by the level of attracting investments as an effective factor in the implementation of the national goals of sustainable development of Ukraine. Target setting. Innovative activity in a higher education institution plays an important role in its development, since the attraction of investments to support panEuropean educational trends and compliance with the principles of publicprivate-public management is one of the conditions for the competitiveness of a higher education institution and contributes to the realization of one of the national goals of sustainable development of Ukraine - ensuring equal access to quality higher education. Actual scientific researches and issues analysis. The scientific achievements of domestic scientists, in particular, such as L. Burdonos, V. Vinogradnya, L. Kozarezenko, K. Shchur, as well as a number of works by the authors of this article, reveal various aspects of the investment activity of higher education institutions and confirm the relevance of research on investment in higher education as a component of the implementation of the national goals of sustainable development of Ukraine. The statement of basic materials. The article updates the goals of Ukraine's sustainable development until 2030 and establishes the relationship between the goal of ensuring quality education and attracting investments to a higher education institution; the participation of stakeholders, among whom are investors, in the management of the educational institution as one of the key principles, which is implemented through the relationship with the labor market and the construction of partnership relations, is highlighted; attracting investments for the purpose of improving the system of providing educational services and their quality, developing new products, improving the infrastructure of universities, attracting international partners, bringing higher education institutions to European standards of activity is one of the key indicators of the prestige of the university and the mechanisms of sustainable development of the national education system in general; the fact of a decrease in the amount of education funding is analyzed, which potentially has negative consequences for the socio-economic development of Ukraine, and investment activity for higher education institutions in the vast majority of management practices remains a secondary or conditional unit of funding. Conclusions. The development of higher education is correlated with the current trends that dominate the world and are aimed at establishing the public good. Attracting additional resources, in the form of investments, to the educational environment of the university will allow implementing socially useful projects, improving the level of educational services, supporting innovative research, implementing the principles of publicprivate partnership in the management of the educational institution, and creating a favourable microclimate for the future development of the higher education institution and the implementation of sustainable development goals.
