Mental health strategies for developing institutional effectiveness in a college.

This research study was essential because of educational reform of the college sector. This sector was based on ideological beliefs and its historical background featured by apartheid and colonialism. The present claims of colleges’ ineffectiveness in the absence of longitudinal data also necessitated this research study. Educational transformation seems to be guided by ideology and not by a careful analysis whether policies are counterintuitive. Many transformation initiatives fail because the vital role part played by human capital in educational and training institutions is ignored. The objectives of the study were to: • explore and describe lived experiences of institutional effectiveness during transformation; and • recommend mental health strategies for personal and systemic growth to develop sustainable institutional effectiveness in the college sector. The objectives of this study favoured the qualitative research paradigm to reach a dense description of the lived experiences of institutional effectiveness during transformation. / Prof. C.P.H Myburgh
