Abstract	Public Law 94-142 and other federal legislation mandate that all handicapped children receive a free and appropriate public education, including vocational education. In order to implement these provisions, personnel development of vocational and special education personnel is needed; therefore, each state that applies for federal funds must submit a three-year state plan that includes a Comprehensive System for Personnel Development (CSPD). A study of all state plans and several territory plans was undertaken to determine the extent to which vocational educators participate, and the extent to which vocational and career education content is present in the planning. The areas of CSPD concern included participatory input and implementation, needs assessment, preservice training, inservice training, incentives for inservice trainee participation, funding, inservice training participants, and vocational education manpower needs relative to educating handicapped learners. The findings and conclusions of the study suggest that vocational educators and vocational and career education content are not reflected extensively in comprehensive personnel planning in the states relative to the education of handicapped children and youth. The analysis also suggests that special education and vocational education continue not to coordinate their personnel preparation efforts to any significant extent. Recommendations include that vocational educators take a more active role in CSPD planning, that they be included in the special education inservice training, and that the needs assessment be used to revise personnel development programs.
