</span>I’m not quite sure what the RFP means when it states that funding
is limited to two FTE student weeks. Our Academy is now four weeks long
(four one-week sessions). In the past it was a four week session, but was
changed two years ago to the four one-week sessions. Does the RFP mean
that Field Studies can only be two weeks long? If so is it two one-week
sessions or can it be a two-week session. I was hoping we could do two
two-week sessions for Field Studies as they have been trying to put four weeks
of work into a one week session since it changed. On the student
evaluations they always say one week just isn’t long enough.</span></font><font
