What Does a Proprietary School Director Do?

Welcome to [Career College Jobs]

There are many types of positions available within the for-profit school industry. One of the positions where potential candidates are most widely sought for career college jobs is the position of College Director/School Director/Executive Director/Proprietary School Director/School President (all the same thing).

What does a proprietary school director do? Where can a proprietary school director submit his or her resume? Does a qualified proprietary school executive director have to have experience in the for-profit career college field?

A proprietary school is a for-profit career college or four year college that can offer certificate, two year and four year degrees in a variety of diverse subjects. The proprietary school director also known as the proprietary school executive director or the proprietary school president is the person responsible for overseeing and managing all aspects of the career college. Everyone reports directly or indirectly to the school director.

The School Director holds one of the most difficult career college jobs.

The biggest responsibility of the school director is being responsible for the profit and loss of the whole career school (the branch office s/he is over). The main objective in a for-profit career college is to increase profits, but not at the expense of providing a poor educational experience for the students. The school director will be responsible for providing an educational environment that will retain and grow the student population while increasing profits accordingly.

A proprietary school director (proprietary school president or executive director) position is a very challenging and high stress position in a for-profit environment. It takes a solid leader to succeed in this industry.

The proprietary school director must have experience in the for-profit career school / college environment to work with an executive search firm. There are exceptions where outsiders can come into the for-profit career school environment, but those entries are typically as a result of the executive's own efforts and networking. With an executive search firm, the clients are paying the search firm to find candidates who already have experience in the field.

There are also cases where the school director has been promoted up through the ranks of a career college by working through other various positions such as director of admissions or dean of education. Once again, the search firm can place an admissions director but cannot place an admissions director into a school president or proprietary school executive director position.
There are a number of executive recruiting firms who specialize in the placement of the for-profit or proprietary school director.
