It has become a necessity for higher education institutions to develop planning models for efficient resource allocation for their own survival.

The methodological procedures of this research are qualitative and bibliographic in nature, using content analysis. The results of this investigated period revealed progress in the implementation of public policies, after 2005, with the creation of diversity support units and resources for the inclusion of young people and adults with disabilities, it was also possible to identify the need for teacher formation and for professionals working in these institutions to eliminate the attitudinal and communication barriers located in many higher education institutions.

This research has a singular and notable importance, because if something should concern a Higher Education Institution, it is knowing what is the destiny within society of the human resource trained in its classrooms, that product that the institution delivers to the community who are its graduates and professionals. For the Institutions of Higher Education it is satisfactory on the part of employers, that the training received in the Institution of Higher Education is indicated, that the majority of graduates and professionals are incorporated into the occupational market; that is to say; some exercise their profession and others do it in occupations that do not correspond to their profession, which is justified, being aware that one of the great problems of the contemporary world is undoubtedly the lack of demand for human resources for stable work, which according to Authorized and reliable studies of every 10 people who join the economically active population, only 3 have real possibilities of fully joining the labor market, either in the private or public sector.

A number of studies have considered the evaluation of efficiency in higher education institutions. In this paper, we focus on the issue of revenue efficiency, in particular ascertaining the extent to which, given output prices, producers choose the revenue maximising vector of outputs. We then relax the price taking assumption to consider the case in which the market for some outputs is characterised by monopolistic competition. We evaluate efficiencies for English institutions of higher education for the academic year 2012–13 and find considerable variation across institutions in revenue efficiency. The relaxation of the price-taking assumption leads to relatively small changes, in either direction, to the estimated revenue efficiency scores. A number of issues surrounding the modelling process are raised and discussed, including the determination of the demand function for each type of output and the selection of inputs and outputs to be used in the model.

In the past decade, however, accountability has become a major concern in most parts of the world. Governments, parliaments, and society at large are increasingly asking universities to justify the use of public resources and account more thoroughly for their teaching and research results. The universal push for increased accountability has made the role of university leaders much more demanding. The successful evolution of higher education institutions will hinge on finding an appropriate balance between credible accountability practices and favorable autonomy conditions.

Notes remain to be playing a significant role in the curricula of higher education institutions, however, the amount of online materials has increased over the past years, primarily thanks to the project EFOP 3.4.3. The advantages of these developments’ direction can be easily recognised as they correspond to the expectations of the students and of modern times. However, following the traditions of preparing notes, each institution currently develops their own education material and curriculum, at most only sharing their experiences in educational methodology at conferences and workshops. Nevertheless, the question arises as to why higher education institutions do not cooperate to develop their curricula together, or why they do not adopt each other’s already existing curricula. The question may also be important because the development of online curricula presents considerably higher costs than developing and preparing “written” notes. A multitude of other questions concerning this issue arises, detailed further by the lecture: - Can the custom of only accepting the institutions’ own lecturers’ materials be broken? - Can cooperation in curriculum development be achieved? If yes, what is required for it? - How can a structure be devised for curricula used by multiple institutions that allows for maximum flexibility and modularisation for application? (‘Bunch of grapes’) - Is it true that if applying the same curriculum, there would be no difference between the courses offered by different higher education institutions? In my lecture I provide a possible answer to each of these questions.

Levels of stress and violence at work have been increasing globally for the past few decades. Whether the setting is business and industry or a college campus, this disturbing trend affects a growing number of people, including those who do not work directly in these environments. In this paper the authors describe the relationship between stress and violence and offer recommendations as to how managers and administrators can reduce employee and student stress levels and help to prevent hostile behaviour from occurring in private companies, public agencies and institutions of higher education. Proactive strategies for preventing violent incidents are included together with suggestions on how to deal effectively with such incidents when they do arise.
