The purpose of this correlational study was to investigate the board competency and governance responsibilities practices of selected higher education institutionsin Southern Asia-Pacific territory and to determine their relationship to governanceresponsibility performance. The study used purposive sampling with questionnaireand a supplementary interview to gather the data from 115 respondents composedof board officers, board members, and school representatives. The empiricalevidence has shown the positive relationship of six competency factors, namely:strategic, contextual, analytical, political, educational, and interpersonal togovernance responsibilities such as: fiduciary, strategic, and generative. The boardcompetency factors were appropriate variables to measure governanceresponsibility performance. Two consistent variables of educational and strategiccompetencies emerged as strong predictors to influence governanceresponsibilities. It was implied that the school and board leadership should committo a strategy to educate the board and to consciously create opportunities for trusteeeducation. Seven relevant themes emerged from the interview that served asguidelines to enhance board competency and governance responsibilities namely,orientation, competency qualification requirement, strategic planning, boardeducation, evaluation of the president, generative leadership, and board evaluation.The diversity of gender and position of members in the board revealed a significantdifference towards board function where male and female board members playedan important role in governance responsibility. The intervention of the demographic variables showed a significant challenge to SDA board of trustees to improve therepresentation of gender in the trusteeship and to empower those members in key positions for the advantage of the school. Consequently, a recommended guideline for the development program was proposed to enhance board competency andgovernance responsibility performance.

"Volatility in State Spending for Higher Education focuses on how much volatility there is in the fiscal relationship between states and institutions of higher education and addresses some of the consequences of this uncertainty. The book begins with a foreword, an editor's introduction, followed by three thematic sections that focus on duration and impact on economic performance and political determinants; financing policies for predictability; and state funding unpredictability. The book should inspire future research on volatility in state support for higher education. Volatility will likely remain a perennial issue and a 'wicked' problem that will require creative and dedicated minds to manage and research"--

This paper will investigate the state's utilisation of higher education policy as 'compensatory legitimation' within the Cypriot context in the late 1980s. It argues that not only the establishment of the University of Cyprus in 1989 - after thirty years of strong nationalist opposition during the British colonial administration and another thirty years of state hesitation and postponement during political independence - but also the character of the established University (state-based and linked to the international community of scholarship) can be explained mainly as the result of the state's decision to utilise higher education in order to make up for its serious deficit in legitimacy. It also maintains that the state used the policy strategy of expertise and to a lesser extent the policy strategy of participation in order to legitimate the process that determined the character of both the University and the knowledge that it was expected to produce. ; peer-reviewed

Topicality of the research subject. The government authorities are concerned about higher education as human capital is being formed in this area.This concern is lessening as macroeconomic indicators show a lack of economic opportunities. Statement of the problem. Limited state funding for higher education requires improved spending of budget funds. Analysis of the recent research and publications. The state funding of higher education is considered at the macro- and micro levels from different angles. Selection of the unresearched parts of the general problem. There is no link between state funding of higher education at the macro level and the use of government funds at the micro level. Statement of the task and the purpose of the research. The method for the assessment of the finance provision of higher education has been improved, which makes it possible to achieve congruence between the mechanism of state order and the choice of educational services by consumers. Method or methodology of the research. A method for assessing the effectiveness of the financial provision of higher education in the space that has the parameters of "educational degree" and "field of knowledge" has been proposed. Statement of the basic material (results of the work). The low effectiveness of the use of state financial resources in relation to specialties and institutions of higher education of Poltava region has been determined. In the segment of "junior specialists" 113 places of the state order were not selected, and in the segment of "bachelors" – 98 places of state order. For most specialties in the segments the license amount did not correspond to the amount of state orders. The segments of the market of educational services differed significantly as to the state order. In the segment of "junior specialists" the share of the state budget places in the amount of demand was 85.16%, the share in the segment of "bachelors" – 60.24%, and in the segment of "masters" – 36.17%. The state stimulated potential consumers with the help of the state order to buy educational services. The state did not fund the realization of the HEI potential, encouraging them to commercialize educational programs. Field of application of results. The field of higher education. Conclusions. The proposed assessment methodology enables determining the effectiveness of the use of the state financial resources for specialties and institutions of higher education and the selection of possible alternative models for the distribution of the state order for their further financing.
