This study highlights the value of leveraging department resources in principal preparation program resources to achieve multiple teaching and program review goals. In this study, masters degree candidates participated in all aspects of the evaluation of the Department of Educational Administration and Counseling. As consumers they already had a sense of what issues would be the most relevant to examine. As learners they participated in every aspect of program review. The openness of the Department modeled the kind of openness future administrators will have to exhibit in their work. The Department was able to take the findings of the study to develop a master plan for program improvement. (Contains 1 table.)
