Section V: Previous Related Training, Experience, and/or Education

Instructions: Although this section may at first appear complicated, it is really quite simple.  For each numbered item, there are three columns, and thus three answers.  In Column A, put the number of HOURS for which you've had formal training (e.g. 3 for two 90-minute training sessions).  In Column B, put the number of YEARS of professional experience (e.g. 2 for 2 years as a bilingual teacher).  In Column C, put the number of college or university CREDIT HOURS you've had related to each question (e.g. 6 for two 3-credit-hour courses).  It's okay to guess or estimate, as this section is simply to generally inform the program administrators about the level of exposure participants have had on each item.  Also, feel free to discuss how you would answer questions to this section with others in the room.
