Dear FAST TRAINers,

This is a reminder that fieldwork placement request forms are due by 
Wednesday, Sept 1 if you are living in the local DC area.  Placement 
forms are available via the attached document OR on our website here: 
http://fasttrain.gmu.edu/current-students/field-req/

Fieldwork Policy Reminder:
All students in the Elementary, ESL, and IB programs are required to 
complete and document 20 hours of fieldwork for each 
licensure/certificate course.  You must document 20 hours of field 
experience and send the observation log AND evaluation to your 
instructor in order to be recommended for licensure by FAST TRAIN 
Programs.  Your fieldwork may also be used to inform a final paper or 
project in your course.  Ask you instructor for more details about how 
fieldwork is used to complete course assignments in your specific class. 

The FAST TRAIN Programs office will help local students (in the 
Washington DC area) with fieldwork placements.  International students 
must follow the site selection guidelines as listed in the fieldwork 
guidelines on our website.

As temporary fieldwork coordinator, I am happy to answer any questions 
you may have about obtaining a fieldwork site.  Best of luck with the 
beginning of the semester!

Thanks,
Jennifer
