- Summary:
-
A statewide system for post-high school preemployment and extension training in technical and vocational education in the form of industrial education centers was begun in 1958. This guide includes a status report on the centers, an examination of the educational needs they should meet, and recommendations for their further development and improvement. Four types of programs are being offered -- trade and technology, machine operator training, supervisory training, and updating for employed adults. Full-time, extension, and part-time curriculums are offered for technicians, skilled craftsmen, technical specialists, and skilled specialists. Increased manpower needs served as a major basis for the establishment of programs for the 20 centers. Program allocations were based on -- (1) the geographical spread of employment opportunities, (2) established or planned programs in existing centers, (3) student potential, and (4) housing accommodations for students. Recommendations include -- (1) concentration on adult and post-high school level, (2) expansion of programs into new fields, (3) establishment of state-wide competency examinations, (4) initiation of student recruitment programs, and (5) accreditation of curriculums. Employment data from the manpower study are included. (em)
