Abstract	A two-phase investigation was conducted to (1) review admission standards, criteria, and practices in use by institutions delivering public occupational education programs, and (2) ascertain the degree of equity associated with admission standards relevant to public occupational education programs in Florida. Phase 1 was conducted by surveying two area vocational technical centers (AVTC's), two community colleges, and four Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA) programs in each of Florida's five regions. Eleven admission standards or practices were identified. The five which were identified most frequently included the following: ability to meet minimal physical performance levels or standards necessary to an occupational license or employment, individual interviews by counselors and/or instructors, previous overall grade point average, standardized achievement test scores, and minimum age requirements necessary to qualify for an occupational license or employment. Phase 2 of the study involved surveying 377 persons representing AVTC and community college administrators, counselors and instructors; CETA administrators and instructors; advisory council members for occupational education programs; and advocates for various groups representing women, minorities and the disadvantaged. This phase of the investigation resulted in the identification of four admission practices which had a high degree of equity and four with a low degree of equity. (Author/KC)
