N2 - Leadership is integral for successful implementation of evidence-based programs and practices (EBPPs) in schools. However, as research is limited regarding school administrators’ training, knowledge, and perceived barriers related to EBPP implementation, a survey was conducted to examine these areas. The majority of respondents reported (a) limited to no pre-service training in EBPP implementation, (b) insufficient in-service training on implementation topics, and (c) lack of knowledge and competency on core implementation concepts. Moreover, respondents identified numerous implementation barriers. Implications for school administrators’ pre- and in-service training, as well as limitations and future directions, are discussed.
