<div dir="ltr"><div>Thanks for the quick responses, and to Jon Reyhner, thanks too, but this is for a local tribal school using bilingual educ funds, not grant funds; also we do have a compensation rate for elder consultants from our cultural advisory board for such things and travel, etc, which is a little different, but this would be an ongoing project that we have never tried before and the request was for me to obtain an estimate of the hourly rate or possible overall contract rate for a certain period of time that they want to use soon (education is MA, PhD Cand. level in relevant discipline), experience in university Apache lang and other Amer Ind topics teaching. </div>

<br><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr">Hi Bernadette,<div>In my experience, the going rate in this situation tends to be the equivalent of what the teachers would be getting. It's hard to give an exact figure but a rate like this gives recognition that the language worker has educational skills which complement those of the teachers.</div>
