Abstract	A project was conducted to develop a curriculum package that defined the specific math, science, and language arts skills presently being taught at a vocational skills center that offered training in 20 job skill areas and served an 11-school district. The information gathered during the project was to serve as a basis for granting cross-credit to high school students receiving training at the skills center. The project staff devised specific competencies for each academic discipline being taught within individual programs. Combination curriculum outlines and information packages were completed for the following program areas: metal fabrication, electronics technology, machine trades, automated office systems, dental assisting, fashion merchandising, medical office assisting, and construction trades. Each outline contained a discussion of the ways in which math, science, and language arts skills were covered in the curriculum; an outline of the specific assignments, instructional hours, learning activities, and evaluation exercises used to cover each competency; a bibliography of course materials used to teach the competencies; and sample handouts distributed to students in the given program. These curriculum outlines not only provided documentation for awarding credit but also served as curriculum and lesson planning guides. (This report includes copies of the eight curriculum outline and information packages developed during the project.) (MN)
