The Association for Tertiary Education Management Inc. (ATEM Inc〔Incorporation number AO3376 under the Australian Capital Territories Registrar of Incorporated Societies.〕) is a professional body in Australasia for tertiary education administrators and managers. It was established in 1976 as the Australian Institute of Tertiary Education Administrators (AITEA), changing its name in 1996.〔Conway, Maree, 'The 30th Anniversary History of ATEM: “Inherent Uncertainty,”' 2006, p. 46, http://www.atem.org.au/downloads/pdf/ATEM-History-Jan07.pdf〕 Its members are employed at organisations across the tertiary academic environment in Australasia, including universities, TAFE institutes, polytechnics and wanangas, private providers, government departments and other related organisations.〔http://www.atem.org.au/about_atem.cfm, accessed 22 September 2010〕 Currently, ATEM publishes the (Journal of Higher Education Policy and Management ) six times annually, in collaboration with the (LH Martin Institute for Higher Education Leadership and Management ). ATEM collaborates with the (Australasian Tertiary Education Facilities Managers Association ) (TEFMA) to hold the annual (Tertiary Education Management Conference ) at a location in Australia or New Zealand. ==Professionalism in Tertiary Education Management== Full-time tertiary education administrators emerged as a distinct role in Australia from the mid-1970s, as institutions sought to deal with their increasing size and complexity, along with a broadning of their aspirations.〔Conway, Maree. 'Defining administrators and new professionals.' PERSPECTIVES, VOLUME 4, NUMBER 1, 2000: pp. 4-5.〕 As the professionalism of tertiary administrators has developed, there has been a corresponding push to recognise the uniqueness and validity of their role in the academic environment,〔GORNALL, L. (1988) `New professionals’: changes and occupational roles in higher education. perspectives, 3(2), pp. 44-49.〕〔Conway, Maree and Ian Dobson. 'Fear and Loathing in University Staffing: The Case of Australian Academic and General Staff.' Journal of Higher Education Management and Policy, Volume 15, No. 3,: pp. 123.133.〕 led by organisations such as ATEM and the Association of University Administrators in the UK. ATEM has stated goals in this area: "ATEM works to advance the professionalisation of tertiary education management. ATEM connects, supports and challenges people, institutions and disciplines, supports them to develop their management skills and knowledge, and challenges the sector to recognise the professional nature of tertiary education management."〔http://www.atem.org.au/about-us/future-strategy〕 ATEM has four major strategic objectives:〔http://www.atem.org.au/uploads/content/105-2010-About-ATEM-flyer.pdf〕 * growing careers: growing the careers of professional administrators and managers to enable them to have rewarding careers and contribute beyond their jobs to the broader sector, * building professionalism: building professionalism for the sector through relevant education and training, and recognising outstanding achievements in the sector, * connecting people and groups: connecting people and groups across the sector to promote sharing of programs, knowledge and practice, and * understanding the sector: providing programs and resources for individuals and groups to better understand the tertiary education sector. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Association for Tertiary Education Management」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
