    Abstract

    Heeding the advice of Young, Petersen, and Short (2002), the Educational Leadership Program at Auburn University included a variety of stakeholders in the reform of its preparation program. Collaborative partnerships were formed with school districts, local and state educational agencies, and with a variety of other educational stakeholders. This paper discusses how various stakeholders were involved in the redesign process. Insights gained from this process may be instructive to other programs as they consider involving multiple stakeholders while facilitating change in their own programs.
