Education administrators often work within the central administrative (academic registrars) department and for individual faculties, departments and sections of universities and colleges of further and higher education. Opportunities also arise within private, tertiary and specialist training colleges. There is no ‘typical' job profile: administrators may have student recruitment, funding, quality assurance, marketing, or public relations roles, or they may be responsible for budgetary/financial administration, project management or human resources management. Many work in a general capacity – undertaking tasks from all of these areas.
Typical responsibilities of the job include:
- handling correspondence
- organising and servicing committee and academic board meetings (producing agendas, taking minutes etc)
- researching and writing reports
- preparing statistics and handling data, such as attendance figures
- processing invoices
- purchasing equipment/other goods
- liaising with potential students, other institutions, government departments and external organisations
- helping with course approval and evaluation activities
- formulating and implementing regulations/policies
- timetabling and planning events
- administering and coordinating student recruitment, examinations and assessment activities
