Career Guidance Institute. Final Report.
Freise, Frederick E.; And Others
The Career Guidance Institute, an inservice education activity for educators in South Portland public schools, was designed to create a climate of sharing, action, and communication among educators, students, and businessmen. The format of the inservice programs included visitations to industry or businesses representing 1 of 10 selected career clusters (as identified by the U.S. Office of Education), and a workshop session following each visitation. Evaluation of the program included feedback from the participants, a pre-post test, an informal discussion of the strengths and weaknesses by participants, businessmen, and staff, and an informal appraisal by the staff. Evaluation results show positive achievement and reception of the program. The appendixes include information desired from employers, business-industry tours information guide, pre-post text questionnaire, feedback information sheets, outline of group presentation, and a listing of educational needs identified through the workshop.
