This widely popular text uses a management approach organized around the processes and procedures necessary for implementing effective human resources administration to give students a comprehensive, user-friendly look at the fundamentals. It presents the human resources function within the context of public school districts; covers the eight essential dimensions of the human resources function: human resources planning, recruitment, selection, placement and induction, staff development, performance evaluation, compensation, and collective negotiations; and looks at the legal, ethical, and policy aspects of human resources administration.

Now available as an affordable e-book, Ronald Rebore’s Human Resources Administration in Education weaves the language of technology throughout; includes more stories and personal examples; poses reflective questions on the focus scenarios; includes a section on value added performance evaluation and more information on win-win collective negotiations; and includes updating throughout. The Enhanced Pearson eText features assessments and internet resources.
