What criteria is used to identify good candidates? 3) Are programs generally job-specific or general? 4) What is the typical program length? Are any self-paced? 5) What is the outcome of the program-- certificate, job placement in target areas, other? 6) Are there any great success stories you have heard of regarding training ELL health-care workers? 7) Have you noticed any specific needs that are not being met by current programs? 8) What curricula is used? Any inclusion of computer-based training? Thanks for assistance. You can reply directly to me at agillespie@prolinguanashville.com or to the group.
