But the engine that drives it all, ultimately, is each individual's commitment to self-reflection and self-improvement. Journal of Staff Development, spring 2002 Here is proof of such commitment. The spring edition of the Maine Fertilizer contains an article by Diane Gardner, EFF Professional Development and Certification Coordinator at the EFF Center for Training and Technical Assistance at the University of Tennessee, Center for Literacy Studies, in which she recognized the first three EFF Facilitators who have achieved state certified status. They are Evelyn Beaulieu, the Director of the Center for Adult Learning and Literacy (CALL); Carolyn Beiers, Project Manager of two statewide EFF Even Start Projects in South Carolina; and Nancy Sledd, Family Literacy Training Specialist for the National Center for Family Literacy. These three facilitators submitted portfolios that included documentation of their training and staff development activities, including participation in a broad range of activities. They have made a significant commitment to study and apply EFF principles and practice in their professional practice. Participants on this list may have questions for these three ladies, including *Was is worth it?* :) They are willing to reply on this list. Evelyn will be at COABE and is willing to talk with people there about her experience.
