This document describes the adaptation of an American inservice teacher training package to German teacher education programs. Far West Laboratory's "Minicourse Nine" was processed in two steps in order to field-test the material and to eliminate possible language inconsistencies. Difficulties in the transference of educational material from one sociocultural context to another are discussed. Results indicate that the minicourse method of inservice teacher instruction is effective in German as well as in American contexts, and guidelines are suggested for the future transfer of teacher education materials.
