The Manual was issued biennially from 1951 to 1961(the first one by the U.S. Office of Education), and beginning with the 1964volume, triennially. The Commission is deeply indebted to author T.M. Stinnett for again consenting to give his time to the planning, writing, andediting of the Manual. Mr. Stinnett was NCTEPS executive secretaryfrom 1951 to 1961 and retired in 1966 from his position as NEA assistant executive secretaryfor professional development and welfare. Over the many years he hasdevoted to the teaching profession, he has made an incalculable contribution toits improvement and advancement. As an educational leader he has set anenviable standard of competence, dedication, and integrity. Recognition should go also to the state directors ofteacher education and certification, who participated in the planning of theManual and contributed hundreds of man hours to gathering and verifyinginformation. And our appreciation is extended to the NEA Division ofPublications, under the direction of Sidney Dorros, for its assistance with productionand distribution. The people who are responsible for this Manual havemade every effort to present accurate and up-to-date information.Nevertheless, because certifica- tion policies and regulations are complex, because thedifferences among states in procedures and terminology are great,because the process of revising and interpreting regulations is a never-ending one, andbecause the production process is necessarily slow,those who read and use the book will inevitably find a few errors, omissions, and obsolete data. We hope the Manual will be of real assistance tothousands of individuals, organizations, and agencies. The eight editions constitute avaluable part of the historic literature of teacher education and auseful catalog of information, trends, controversies, and problems and issues in the field.In addition, we believe this volume and its predecessors record some ofthe major aspects of the continuing struggle within the teaching profession toimprove the quality of American education by achieving higherstandards of preparation and practice.
