Synopses of Selected Career Education Programs: A National Overview of Career Education.

Because of the emerging emphasis on career education, educators are becoming more interested in what is being done in both local and state programs. This document is the result of a series of on-site visits made by the North Carolina center staff to projects in 30 states and a review of self-studies submitted by the projects. Synopses of the self-studies are provided for 39 programs located in 10 U.S. Office of Education regions. Basic information includes grade levels, program goals, general characteristics, and a contact person for further information. In-depth descriptions are anticipated in a future publication. (GEB)
