| Abstract: | The paucity of skilled and knowledgeable leadership personnel for postsecondary learning disability programs is a critical limitation to the development of this area of special education. This manuscript delineates competencies needed for leadership personnel and describes a preservice and an inservice training program. The preservice program is the University of Connecticut's learning disability college doctoral training program. A listing of required coursework is included. The inservice program is Connecticut's Learning Disability College Consortium which provides comprehensive technical assistance to postsecondary institutions throughout the state. Sixty-two competencies in the following areas are listed: assessment skills, affective interventions, cognitive interventions, instructional skills and techniques, counseling/consultation skills, research skills and management/leadership skills.
