Abstrakt: 
The paper deals with the determination of types and contents of competencies and roles of managers in regional education. Specifically, it compares the most important roles and competencies of managers in regional education as presented in specialised literature with the results of a survey conducted by the author of this study among the students of Master´s degree study programme in Educational Management in the period 2017-2018. Based on the conducted survey, it is possible to determine more precisely which partial competencies a headmaster needs for a competent performance of his/her work position. That is connected with the possibility to target more precisely the professional development of this group of employees in regional education. The information obtained can also be used as a contribution to the development of a professional standard or of a generally acceptable competence model of a headmaster. That could be used to specify more precise selection criteria for educational managers and also to enable their further career development also outside of the sector of regional education.
