Abstract | This report is a synthesis of the annual reports of 50 state councils on vocational education for 1988. The summary outlines the governance of vocational education at the state level, the postsecondary level, and in relation to the Job Training Partnership Act. It also discusses the state councils of vocational education in regard to governance, responsibilities, information gathering, surveys and evaluation, education, the public role, and coordination effort. Significant accomplishments found by the synthesis include 124 new vocational education initiatives, 54 cooperative ventures, and 48 state legislative actions. The report suggests that state councils should promote joint planning, train personnel and improve recruitment, develop technological support, provide services to minority and disadvantaged groups, prioritize their recommendations, focus their agendas, and build bridges with other agencies. Appendices, about 80 percent of the document, are reprints from a January 1990 publication of the National Association of State Councils on Vocational Education. They describe state council actions for the past 6 years. An index to the issues is provided. (KC) |
