Abstract

An experimental training program for extension agents brought agents and specialists into daily contact for eighteen months, enabling them to share information about their respective work environments. The lessons learned can increase mutual understanding between agents and specialists. Such understanding is necessary to develop effective partnerships to create useful programming.
