Abstract	Designed to help California community colleges develop plans and applications for Carl D. Perkins Vocational and Applied Technology Education Act (VATEA) funds, this handbook reviews the purposes and mandates of the VATEA and provides instructions for plan development. The first section presents an overview of the Act, indicating that it authorizes federal assistance to secondary, postsecondary, and adult vocational education programs from 1991-96, requiring local education agencies to target funds to programs serving the highest number of special population students (i.e., disabled, economically disadvantaged, or limited-English proficient students). The second section reviews specific mandates related to the content and emphases of VATEA plans, focusing on annual evaluations, obligations to special populations, use of funds for vocational education programs, and other criteria. The next section reviews state funding priorities for 1994-96 and their implications for local plans and applications, while the fourth section provides instructions for developing local plans, emphasizing the following required components: (1) integration and sequencing of academic and vocational education curriculum; (2) curriculum and program strategies reflecting workplace needs; (3) instructional and support services responsive to the needs of students who are members of special populations; (4) data collection, assessment, and program evaluation; and (5) Title IIIB, consumer and homemaking education. Finally, a list is presented of required items in local plans/applications for VATEA funding, 1994-95, and sample forms are provided. Discussions of specific VATEA sections and core measures and standards are appended. (KP)
