Summary/Abstract: The presentation aims to emphasize the acute need for the existence of coherent educational policies in educational institution management. It is anchored in the concrete example of these concerns in Romania in recent decades. Pre-service and in-service training of school managers is argued as a necessity. A possible professionalizing of this occupation is highlighted, following examples derived from a brief presentation of the problem in the world. A curricular approach aiming at educational managers’ training within a concrete program of master’s studies existing at Transilvania University from Brașov is presented synthetically. Some universally valid aspects of this training are highlighted. The presentation stresses the idea that all these aspects must be understood in depth both by the educational policymakers, by the curriculum designers, and by those who implement the respective curricula. Awareness and accountability in this field increase the effectiveness both of school managers’ pre-service training and implicitly the quality of the educational approach at all levels of the education system, from early education to higher education.
