Relevant people (e.g. Principals, Convenors) will

be notified and asked to comment on the application.
Copies of these comments will be distributed to the
Educational Leave Committee members and the applicant.

The Educational Leave Committee will meet to review the
Application Forms and have an initial discussion on the
requests.

Factors for consideration:

a) Which of the criteria as set down in Article 12.12
does the request fall into and how well?

b) A consideration of the comments from Principals/
Vice Principals and discipline/programme groups
in terms of support for the project (e.g.enthusiastic,
non-commital, against).

c) Presentation. The legibility and clarity of the
proposal. The thought given to it in terms of goals,
preparations, contacts, acceptance letters. The
consideration of the results for college, students
and faculty member. What methods of reporting and
use of end results are proposed?

Interviews. Depending on the number of applicants it
May be necessary to have two or more interview teams
each with a spokesman and a recorder. A whole day will
probably need to be set aside for interviews.

a) Before the interviews the Committee will meet as a
whole to exchange comments and questions and points
of clarification to be put to the applicants.

b) Thirty minutes will be allowed for each interview.

c) Immediately following the interviews, the Committee
will meet again, as a whole, to exchange information
on each candidates application.

whether it be accepted or rejected.
