Abstract	This guide is intended to assist local providers of Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) youth employment training in responding to new Department of Labor reporting definitions calling for a sufficiently developed youth employment competency system. The first two sections discuss the concept of sufficiently developed systems in generic terms. Chapters 3 through 8 provide detailed discussions of each of the following items encompassed by the concept of a sufficiently developed competency system: youth employment competencies (descriptions of individual competencies, competency statements, employer involvement, and foundation competencies); assessment and evaluation (approaches, major concerns, and selection); employability development plans; curricula, training modules, and behavior modification approaches (concept, practice, abstracts); certification; and documentation (constructing, recording, and reporting). Chapter 9 covers monitoring and capacity building as supplemental aspects of a sufficiently developed system. The 10th chapter deals with accountability points and reviews the causes of variations in youth employment competency systems. Chapters 11 through 13 examine preemployment/work maturity, basic education, and job-specific skills in terms of implementation strategies, measurement alternatives, appropriate components, and means of acknowledging achievement. The final 400 pages consist of appendix materials for the chapters 2 through 13, including such items as youth employment competencies that have been delineated by various states, sample forms, lists of objectives, program descriptions, competency statements, learning activities, and lesson plans from various JTPA programs throughout the country.
