This seminar was designed to facilitate final completion and acceptance of state plans which would govern staff development during the third project year and implement a permanent system for each state participating in the project. Objectives of the seminar were: (1) to describe, analyze, and revise individual state plans; (2) to secure personal and institutional commitment to plan implementation; (3) to provide a framework for review of the similarities, differences and unique provisions of each state plan; (4) to discuss plans for developing, using and institutionalizing regionwide resources during the third year of the project--resources which would become adjuncts to every state training system; and (5) to identify and assess major obstacles to ABE staff development in the next three years. The plan agreed upon at this seminar will: (1) establish the training pattern for the next year, (2) establish many of the third-year and final evaluation criteria for each state, (3) be the basis of budget allocations of project funds, (4) identify state, state grant, and participating agency funds that supplement project funds, and (5) establish a basic and permanent delivery system for ABE staff training.
