Evaluated with approximately 200 Head Start personnel in Iowa were two staff training models for serving handicapped children in Head Start--an experiential training model and a seminar-oriented training model. In the experiential model, Head Start staff (directors, education coordinators, health coordinators, and teachers) spent 2 days in a training program which stressed direct interaction between the trainee and the handicapped child. In the seminar oriented training model Head Start personnel gathered for 2 days of seminars which focused on the sharing of information, problems, and possible solutions. Results of participant evaluations indicated that both models were viable training approaches. Recommendations for future training included establishing objectives based on a needs assessment of the trainees, encouraging active participation, using the small group format, utilizing a variety of activities, evaluating training effectiveness, and planning followup activities.
