The audience will be mostly veterinarians and animal facility managers who provide training in animal care to technicians who have a variety of backgrounds, from a high school diploma or less, a GED, up to a bachelor's degree. The training involves both basic "how to" training in the routine tasks to be performed, and teaching more knowledge-based materials to help the individuals prepare for the examinations of different levels of certification. I have not been able to find much in the literature that deals with the teaching of specialized subject matter to adults with limited English language skills. I would appreciate if you would share your knowledge and experience with me! Thank you in advance, genevieve.fridland@aalas.org
