Abstract

Current concerns about the efficacy of special classes for the handicapped, the widening gap between demands for professional personnel and the numbers of trained persons to meet such demands, and the narrowing financial base for training programs require the development of new models for training professional personnel. Project In-STEP is one new alternative model for training tomorow's special education professionals. Emphasizing flexible training, heavy field experience, and careful programmatic evaluation, In-STEP is seeking to point the way to new directions in training. Preliminary evaluation indicates that In-STEP offers promise of being a viable model.
