Abstract	This project developed a field-based program that trained 40 teachers, 17 for early childhood handicapped programs and 23 to work with severely handicapped children. The program complemented existing credentials and master's degree programs at California State University, Northridge. During a full year of supervised practicum, the students were videotaped as they interacted with children in instructional contexts. The tapes were used to provide coaching and feedback, to establish self-monitoring skills, and to evaluate the students' attainment in each competency area. Target competencies included: (1) using and interpreting assessment instruments and techniques; (2) designing and implementing individualized intervention programs; (3) designing and organizing appropriate learning environments; (4) developing appropriate early childhood developmental activities; (5) providing opportunities for choice, problem solving, and responsibility for learning on the part of the young child; (6) developing teaching strategies and handling techniques; and (7) performing and applying task analysis in the learning environment. The program's effectiveness was evaluated using data measuring the competencies attained by students and the efficiency/effectiveness of videotape usage, opinions expressed by participants and their employers, and the numbers and types of positions program graduates assumed. Appendices include a bibliography of materials used for training and copies of evaluation instruments. (Author/VW)
