Training Plan Outlined

School Records and Occupations Assigned

ouate training or experience for
entering employment of any kind
They had no opportunity to form
work habits, no experiences in as
suming job responsibilities, and they
had acquired no skill demanded by
a particular occupation.
Cooperative vocational training is
a plan of education whereby regular
high school students are enabled to
secure practical training ana cX-
perience under real occupatiOnal
conditions, through the cooperation
of the parents, the schools and lead
crS in the various occupations of the
community.
The plan has been instituted in
several cities throughout the nation,
of which Greensboro was among the
first 1t has been successful in meet
ing the needs which are pointed out
above
In brief, the plan of cooperative
vocational training is as follows:
High school students, in their junior
and senior years, adjust their daily
school program to include two
periods of studying information or
technical material related to a Sc
lected occupation, and one period
or required academic subjects at the
high school building This part of
the program is usually during the
morning hours. In the afternoon US
ually for three hours the student will
do practical job training in some
selected occupation within the COM
munity.
The Federal and State depart
ments Of vocational education aid
and supervise the program. In the
past no pay has been required for
students time in any occupation.
For the future, however, the Federal
Board for Vocational Education has
ruled that small compensation shall
be paid. The amount of this compen-
Sation shall be determined by the
local Advisory Board
The training schedule for an oc-
cupation is outlined at the ebgin-
ming. Each step in that occupation
is experienced by the student on the
actual job and each unit is complet-
ed before the student is advanced to
the next. This makes the time spent
in an occupation a continuous learn
ing period ror which high school
credit is given.
Students are enrolled on basis of
past school records. Each student is
placed in an occupation which has
been carefully selected to meet his
desires, his qualifications, and his
vocational tendencies. His progress
throughout the course is under con-
stant supervision.
The cooperative vocational train
ing plan extends opportunity for
PRACTICAL training and experience in
as many occupations of the COM
nunity as stand ready to cooperate,
provided such occupation justifies an
extended training program. 1t per-

"ThCre has been general recogni-
ton of a need for better preparation
for boys and girls to enter the great
majority of occupations. In the past,
practical vocational training in our
high schools was limited to those
courses which could be adapted to
school programs. The number of
occupations for which courses could
be adapted was small and, at best
training conditions had to be altered
from true occupational situations to
meet requirements of the school pro-
gram.
Boys and girls desired high school
education, but many were faced with
the necessity Of entering employment
as soon as possible after graduation.
Some needed to find permanent en-
ployment, others needed to earn be-
