Abstract	The conference reported here was held for national leaders from industry, labor, education, and youth-serving organizations to (1) provide a forum for the presentation of a sampling of illustrative programs displaying initiative being taken in the private sector to enhance youth career development, and (2) obtain the counsel of participants on how the Department of Commerce can help facilitate and promote similar efforts throughout the private sector. Following a brief introduction and a discussion regarding the issues of work-education collaboration, this booklet's content is presented in five sections. The first section covers the conference proceedings and includes a summary of the presentations pertaining to each of ten programs illustrative of a range of private sector approaches to youth career development. The remaining four brief sections present (1) a brief conference statement as to why the Department of Commerce has a role to play in youth career development, (2) a synopsis of the discussion that took place during the conference, (3) conference summary and conclusions, and (4) an agenda for action for the private sector to help the whole community be a learning resource. The opening remarks, the remarks by the Secretary of Commerce, the luncheon address, descriptions of the ten illustrative programs, and a list of the participants are appended. (EM)
