These programs, such as music or special education, are used by schools. Some programs, such as public health education, are geared toward special populations. Specialists plan, organize, and direct these programs. Running these programs often requires that specialists get several people to meet. Then these people must agree on goals and cooperate in their work.
Specialists also work with farmers and homemakers.
Specialists may design surveys to learn more about what people like and dislike about programs. They evaluate the results and make changes. Sometimes specialists write reports about their findings. If changes are made, then specialists prepare and distribute new materials. Once a program is running, specialists monitor it for problems.
