2 Structured Learning Experience Questions Answered Do you have questions about SLE? Sign up for the NJDOE Listserv by submitting your address at Below are recent questions and answers that were sent out via the NJDOE Listserv; answers were supplied by Anne Freeman, NJDOE. QUESTION: Can I work under another teacher s cooperative education coordinator or CIE certificate? ANSWER: There are no provisions in the teacher licensure code for cooperative education coordinators that permits one staff person in the district to work under another person's cooperative education coordinator s certificate. All staff who are placing and supervising students in external, paid or unpaid structured learning experiences, including cooperative education experiences, must personally hold the appropriate certificate and/or complete the required SLE training, as required by the teacher licensure code. The relevant teacher licensure and training code can be found in a handbook on our SLE website, entitled Structured Learning Experience Teacher Certification and Training Information, School Year Download the document at I hope that this information helps clarify things for you. QUESTION: How do I go about getting my certification since I have completed the 48 hours? I have tried several different people, but nobody seems to know what the procedure is, including the county superintendent's office. I have my paper signed by my supervisor, but I don't know who gets that paperwork. I know we were originally told to send the paper to you, but that information was corrected. ANSWER: The signed Structured Learning Experience Teacher Certification and Training Information form ( should be submitted to the county superintendent s office annually and filed as part of your district s professional development documentation. QUESTION: Does job shadowing require a training plan? ANSWER: Job shadowing is defined by the New Jersey Child Labor Regulation N.J.A.C. 12: as a process by which a student determines by observation, interview and study the pertinent information related to an occupation. Information can include such factors as qualifications for employment, functions performed, necessary skills and knowledge, equipment and material used and physical demands and working environment. Job shadowing does not 2 include any hands-on activities. Typically, job shadowing is conducted with a group of students as a oneday event. Job shadowing does not require a student training plan because there are no hands-on activities, and its purpose is primarily career awareness. QUESTION: Currently, I am pursuing my certification to place students in SLEs. Is there a special endorsement needed in order to place students in a hazardous SLE, such as HVAC/R, electrical work or carpentry? ANSWER: Yes federal and state child labor laws and regulations and DOE administrative code require that (1) the students are enrolled in a DOE-approved vocational-technical education program in the occupation in which the student would be placed and (2) the student is supervised by a vocational-technical education teacher holding an endorsement for the occupation in which the student will be placed and who has completed the required SLE courses or (3) the student is supervised by a teacher holding either the old CIE certificate or the new CEC-Hazardous occupations certificate.

3 Structured Learning Experience Training Found Valuable In October 2005, the Safe Schools Program mailed a survey to 444 individuals who had completed one to four of the five courses required for individuals supervising structured learning experiences. One hundred and one surveys were returned for a response rate of 23%. Reasons for Taking the Required Courses From a list of 18 items, I m currently serving as a Structured Learning Experience teacher and I have to complete the required training, was cited as the most common reason (34%) for enrolling in the non-credit courses. This was followed by: I m enrolling in the courses for informational purposes/personal enrichment (29%), I m enrolling in the courses to fulfill a portion of my NJDOE-required professional development hours (23%) and I m currently serving as a Transition Coordinator and I have to complete the required training (22%). Knowledge Gained as a Result of Training A five-point scale (1=very low to 5=very high) was used to measure the level of knowledge on seven different content areas before and after completing the courses. Average knowledge levels prior to completing the courses ranged from 2.25 to 2.72 (low to moderate). After completing the courses, the average levels of knowledge ranged from 3.48 to 3.91 (moderate to high gain). Only five percent or less of those taking courses indicated no change in knowledge. Value of Training Using a five-point scale (1=strongly disagree, 5=strongly agree) focusing on eight statements regarding the value of the training, respondents averaged between agreed and strongly agreed (4.08 to 4.27) on items indicating that the training better prepared them for placing students, was valuable, should be completed by other teachers and benefited their students. As for the length of the trainings, respondents indicated, overall, that it was about right. awareness and exploration (64%), community service/ service learning (64%), partnering with communitybased organizations (63%), partnering with employers/trade organizations (62%), partnering with social service agencies (62%) and worksite mentor training (60%). Situations Where Training Was Helpful Thirty-eight respondents provided comments about situations where the training was helpful in handling SLEs. Twelve of the respondents described the training and forms for developing training plans as helpful or valuable in guiding the process and evaluating student placements. One person wrote, The paperwork and instructions I received through the Designing and Implementing Student Training Plans workshop has assisted with the entire process. I followed the suggested step-by-step procedure and found the experience very beneficial. Eleven of the respondents commented on how the training helped to identify safety issues at worksites. One person wrote, The OSHA training has helped me to better evaluate the safety of the placements for SLE s. Another person wrote, When teaching Basic Cooking, the hazards and safety has made a lot of things more noticeable. Six respondents indicated they were better able to address Federal and State child labor, wage and hour and hazardous orders. Two comments indicated the training was good reinforcement or a refresher to what had been learned earlier. Ted Goff Cartoon Additional Professional Development Needed When asked what topics respondents would like see offered for additional training, all selections received a relatively high percentage of interest. The following topics received the highest percentage of responses: recruiting and developing SLE sites (70%), career 3

6 Lost Youth: Four Stories of Injured Young Workers A Review A new video now available for schools offers a very realistic approach to instructing students about occupational safety and health. Lost Youth: Four Stories of Injured Young Workers was developed with the cooperation of young Canadians who had been injured on the job. Lost Youth is not appropriate for all students; it is better suited for older students who think injuries could not happen to them. The teens injuries were recreated with help from the special effects crew of the hit TV show, The X-Files; as such, footage may be graphic and upsetting. The program also contains course language. You can request either the edited or unedited format, if the language would be an issue. Through dramatic reenactments and unscripted personal interviews, Michael, Jennifer, Nick and John discuss how their injuries have changed their lives. Each of the four teens suffered permanent disability from workplace accidents, including John, a former basketball player, who was 16 when he broke his back in a forklift accident and now walks with a cane. The overriding theme in the 17-minute, well-produced video, is that none of the students were properly trained in occupational safety and health. By realistically recreating their personal tragedies, these young people felt the theme would have the greatest impact and credibility with other students. Lost Youth was developed by the Communications Department of the Workers Compensation Board of British Columbia in partnership with the Youth Initiatives Unit of Human Resources and Development Canada B.C./Yukon Regional Office. The program is available on VHS and DVD format for $50 (Canadian); a discussion guide is available online to facilitate conversation. To view the video online, get ordering information and a copy of the discussion guide, please visit: www2.worksafebc.com/topics/youngworker/ Resources-YoungWorkers.asp. Other videos and information are also available. Report on Young Workers Deaths The Injury Prevention Service, Oklahoma State Department of Health, has issued a report on work-related deaths among young workers under 25 years of age in Oklahoma from 1998 to Sixty-eight deaths occurred over this time period with the leading causes of death attributed to motor vehicle crashes or being struck by motor vehicles. The following description was given for one fatality: A 17-year-old male was working alone baling wheat straw for hay when the baler became jammed with straw. The victim climbed on top of the baler to clear the jam with his foot. When it cleared, the victim s leg became trapped in the machinery and the belts that were spinning around the hay caught fire. The victim died at the scene from smoke inhalation and burns. He was a full-time student working for the summer; he had two years of experience working with his family on the farm. Source: Young%20workers%20color.pdf OSHA Focuses on Teen Worker Safety in Summer OSHA has launched a Teen Summer Job Safety Campaign to reduce the risk of summer injuries. Approximately 80 percent of U.S. teens work annually. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that in 2004 there were more than 38,000 teen workers injured on the job and 134 fatalities. This year s focus will be on landscaping hazards. OSHA has prepared resource kits to educate young workers, parents, employers and educators on workplace safety. The kits can be downloaded from landscaping/landscaping.html#general. Numerous fact sheets and informational resources are available on heat stress, working outdoors in warm climates, reducing the risks of an amputation, slip and trip injuries, reducing the risk of lifting injuries, insects, noise, pesticides, electrical safety and eye protection. 6
7 New NIOSH Guidelines on Use of Contact Lenses In June 2005, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) issued guidelines for the use of contact lenses during work with chemicals. Since 1978, NIOSH has recommended that employees not wear contact lenses during work with chemicals that may present an eye irritation or injury hazard. Recently, several professional groups have issued guidelines removing restrictions in the industrial environment. NIOSH reviewed these guidelines, company policies on contact lens use and injury incidents, and the limited literature on contact lens use in a chemical environment. Injury data are lacking to indicate that contact lens wear should be restricted during work with hazardous chemicals. Thus, NIOSH recommends that contact lens wear be permitted provided that the following safety guidelines are followed: 1. Conduct an eye injury hazard evaluation, including a chemical exposure assessment and a review of information regarding contact lens absorption and adsorption for the class of chemicals in use. 2. Provide suitable eye and face protection for all workers exposed to eye injury hazards, regardless of contact lens wear. 3. Establish a written policy documenting general safety requirements for wearing contact lenses, including the eye and face protection required and any contact lens wear restrictions by work location or task. 4. Comply with current OSHA regulations on contact lens wear and eye and face protection. 5. Notify workers and visitors about any defined areas where contact lenses are restricted. 6. Identify to supervisors all contact lens wearers working in chemical environments to ensure that the proper hazard assessment is completed and the proper eye protection and first aid equipment are available. 7. Train medical and first aid personnel in the removal of contact lenses and have the appropriate equipment available. 8. Begin eye irrigation immediately and remove contact lenses as soon as practical, in the event of a chemical exposure. 9. Instruct workers who wear contact lenses to remove the lenses at the first signs of eye redness or irritation. Evaluate restrictions on contact lens wear on a case-by-case basis. Please consult the complete NIOSH guidelines for details at Number of Reported Accidents in 2005 Decreases Since 1998, the Safe Schools Program has analyzed the accidents reported to the New Jersey Department of Education. Any accident involving treatment by a doctor and associated with a vocational-technical education program must be reported. The following figure shows a continuing decline in number of reported accidents over the years. 7
