Özet Küreselleşme sürecinin artan rekabetçi koşulları ve Bilgi Teknolojilerinde (BT) yaşanan gelişmeler göz önüne alındığında, bireylerin kariyer gelişimlerine katkı sağlayan sertifika eğitim programlarının 21. yüzyıl becerilerinin kazandırılması bakımından ne derece etkili olduğunun ortaya konması bu çalışmanın amacını oluşturmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, BT sertifika eğitim programları arasında önemli kuruluşlardan biri olan Cisco Networking Academy işbirliği ile Mesleki ve Teknik Liselerde gerçekleştirilen Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) Sertifika Programı ele alınmıştır. Bu sertifika programı, Türkiye’deki bilgisayar ağları teknolojisi alanındaki işgücü taleplerini karşılamak maksadıyla meslek liselerinin bilişim ve elektrik-elektronik teknolojileri alanlarındaki öğrenciler için eğitimler düzenlemektedir. Bu sertifika eğitim programının değerlendirilmesi 2011-2012 eğitim-öğretim yılında başlayan ve iki yılda tamamlanan kapsamlı bir çalışmadır. Ancak mevcut çalışmanın kapsamı, eğitim programının birinci yılında sertifika programına katılan öğrenciler ile katılmayan öğrencilerin demografik özellikler ve 21. yüzyıl beceri düzeyleri bakımından karşılaştırılması ile sınırlıdır. Araştırma toplamda 1453 öğrenci ile gerçekleştirilmiş olup bu öğrencilerin çoğunluğu erkeklerden oluşmaktadır. Çalışmanın bulgularına göre, sertifika programına katılan öğrencilerin katılmayan öğrencilere göre 21. yüzyıl becerileri bakımından birçok düzeyde yüksek becerilere sahip oldukları ve teknoloji ağırlıklı sertifika eğitim programlarına katılan öğrenciler arasında cinsiyete bağlı dezavantajlı grupların oluşmadığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

The predictive ability of the Big Five personality traits and trait emotional intelligence (EI) of physical education (PE) teacher candidates' academic success was examined. A total of 295 PE teacher candidates aged 23 to 32 completed the Short Form Five Factor Personality Inventory (Tatar, 2005) and the revised and adapted Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale (Schutte et al., 1998) at the beginning of the 2007-2008 academic year. At the year's end, participants' grade point averages (GPAs) were matched to their trait EI and personality scores. Pearson product-moment correlations and hierarchical regression were used to analyze data. Academic success as GPA was found to be positively related with Openness to Experience and Conscientiousness and negatively related with Neuroticism. Additionally, a regression model consisting of the Big Five personality traits could predict a significant amount of variance in GPA. However, no association was identified between trait EI as measured by the Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale and GPA. Trait EI also did not make any significant contribution to the predictive ability of the Big Five personality traits.

This study examines the relationship between self-perceived emotional intelligence (EI) measured by the Emotional Intelligence Scale (EIS) [1] and other personality measures including the five-factor-model. The EI construct has lately been re-defined as the ability to think intelligently about emotions and to use them to enhance intelligent thinking [2]. Two studies provide support that self-reported EI is mainly associated with personality traits (extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, self-perceived creativity), life satisfaction and thinking styles with only a low relation to verbal intelligence. Furthermore, persons higher in the EI dimension “emotional efficacy” produced more creative performances than persons low in this domain. These findings suggest that self-reported EI cannot be considered as a rational form of intelligence so that it does qualify to fit into the framework of personality traits.

In this article, the main approaches concerning the problem of leadership traits formation as studied in both national and foreign literature are viewed. There are given results of research on leadership traits in students at technical specialties and humanities in the course of their training at a higher education institution in their connection with emotive intellect. The peculiarities of leadership traits in the tested groups with different level of emotive intellect, as well as a connection between leadership traits and emotive intellect are determined. The highest indicators according to the results of the research are demonstrated by a group of students of technical specialties with a high level of emotional intelligence, which indicates the ability to manage their emotions and behavior, the ability to solve problems. They demonstrate a high level of organizational skills, ability to work with a group. Their actions are aimed at achieving goals. The lowest rates according to the results of the study were found in a group of students of humanities with a low level of emotional intelligence. In difficult situations, it is difficult for them to find a way out. They do not know how to control the work of their comrades, to find common ground with people. The relationship between emotional intelligence and leadership skills in students of technical and humanities has been studied. A group of technical students with a high level of emotional intelligence found positive correlations between emotional intelligence and all scales of leadership qualities. There are no correlations between emotional intelligence and leadership qualities in the group of humanities students with a low level of emotional intelligence. In other groups of students, certain correlations have been established between emotional intelligence and leadership qualities.
