Abstract: Candidate selection considerations necessary in the development of model teacher education programs are presented in this paper. The physical, mental, and personal areas which must be assessed and evaluated are discussed as a framework for stating specific selection criteria for the particular institution developing the program. Some suggested procedures for gathering information on a prospective candidate are outlined, as well as procedures for the smooth orientation and induction of those candidates selected to begin a model teacher education program. These guidelines, suggestions, and procedures are aimed at increasing the efficiency, effectiveness, and positive human relations in a model candidate selection component. (Author/JS)
