Being an admin requires an Admin Degree. Experience in the area they are “administrating” would be a great bonus. So much so that I would like to see it be a requirement.
A person graduating with a Construction Management degree will have approximately 48 credit hours in the field of construction, project scheduling, financing, etc. Thing directly related to the focus of the job.
An admin requires around 45 credit hours spread over many areas like budgeting, educational law, Human Resources, and curriculum planning. Great for a building principals, not so much for a person overseeing building remodels and new construction.
I guess I should be clearer, I’m talking the “central office” administrators.
edit: my district actually has a guy in charge of facilities and purchasing that is good at his job. But I could easily see how most former teachers would struggle in that job. An Admin degree is a very small part of prepping for that position.

Ok, that makes sense. We're good.
