This survey research project compared and contrasted faculty and SSAO expectations for discrete new professional competencies. Findings revealed few significant differences. This study further examined differences between expected and perceived levels of new professional competency. Significant gaps emerged for fiscal management, planning, assessment, the application of theory to practice, critical thinking, collaboration, conflict management, and written communication. Implications for faculty, practitioners, and professional organizations are discussed.
