Applying to Attend a Landmarks of American History and Culture Workshop

http://neh.gov/projects/landmarks-school.html is the web site which contains information about the workshops to be offered, and the procedures to follow to apply to the workshop(s) of your choice. This is the url of the offerings for this summer, 2010. The NEH selects the workshops to support every year.

New this year: The application deadline is March 2, 2010 (postmark), two weeks earlier than in previous years.

Please don't assume that you (or a friend or colleague) will not qualify because of status as a substitute teacher; I have been a substitute teacher for eight years, and have been selected to attend nine of these workshops since the summer of 2004.

A serious benefit for any teacher attending an NEH workshop (over and above the obvious knowledge and experience gained) is the additional entry that can then be placed on your résumé when you apply for another position.
