Abstract	As part of a project on mainstreamed handicapped students in vocational education, 402 secondary teachers and 19 administrators completed a questionnaire about their abilities to teach handicapped learners. Results were analyzed in terms of contact with the handicapped, willingness to work with the handicapped, accommodation of the handicapped, teacher attitudes regarding the handicapped, practicality of mainstreaming, and needed assistance. Among results were that teachers and administrators were sufficiently concerned about the topic; teacher contact with handicapped students was somewhat related to the size of the handicapped population; and increased paperwork, inability to individualize, too many students, and too many other responsibilities were among factors which teachers felt made mainstreaming impractical.
