| This study is about defining the information requirements of educational administrators, specifically the administrators of the Community Colleges within Manitoba.;The educational administrator faces challenges every day in making decisions that affects his or her employees, students, and the community at large. This study attempts to explore what information is necessary to help make these decisions in two Manitoba Community Colleges, and how specific information can be obtained to assist in the administrator's decision making process. This study was conducted due to the observation that there was not a cohesive process which could provide effective information to the Community College administrator, information that sometimes was readily available, but was not in a useable form. This study also defines a model and a procedure that is effective in deciding what specific information, in form and substance, is required for the decision process to be effective for the administrator and, ultimately, the organization.
