Abstract	The Vocational Education Amendments of 1976 mandate that sex bias and sex stereotyping be eliminated from all vocational education programs. In business and office occupations programs, the problems have been centered around increasing the number of male students in the program, encouraging women to move into management positions and other upper level supervisory jobs, and using sex-fair language in business communications. Responding to the Amendments, the state of Delaware developed a set of five sex equity modules designed (1) to focus on issues which are related to specific clusters of career options as defined in Delaware's competency-based, goal-oriented business and office occupations curriculum; (2) to provide information and materials for one to three days of activities; and (3) to focus the student's attention on those sex equity concerns which will affect her/his experiences as a student in the classroom, on-the-job, and in making career decisions. This module focuses eliminating sex stereotyping in business management and related occupations (office manager, administrative assistant, department manager, small business operator). Instructional activities in the module include pretest/posttest; a discussion of myths and realities about working women; a case study of conflict; an occupational attitude survey; a sex stereotyped characteristics analysis; a slide-tape presentation; and qualifications for employment.
