The training was in the fields of pre-engineering, the health professions, communications, business and finance, and hotel management and the culinary arts. Oral testimony describing the programs (which included schools within schools) and their impact was presented by a student and a faculty member from a participating school, by the superintendent of schools, and by a representative of the participating corporations.
