This second in a series of three papers on models for communicating and disseminating career education programs highlights selected state models. Focus is on four levels of dissemination: spread, exchange, choice, and implementation. First, several spread mechanisms utilized by states to disseminate career education information are covered. Then follows a presentation of varied examples of state information and resource exchange centers. Next, choice mechanisms utilized by some states are discussed. Finally, the implementation strategies used by several states are described, such as networks, training programs, and peer interaction. This paper includes a table listing thirteen states and for each includes the names and addresses of the project contact person and career education coordinator; and the available dissemination services.
