To provide an opportunity for communication among selected vocational and general education leaders who are interested and involved in graduate education, 19 university, state and federal officials, and specialists attended a 4-day seminar designed to: (1) identify leadership roles and competencies, (2) identify and describe social and behavioral science elements as they apply to vocational and technical education, (3) explore ways to optimize interinstitutional cooperation in graduate programs, and (4) recommend ways to improve graduate education programs for vocational and technical education leaders. To accomplish seminar objectives, major papers were presented by R. N. Evans, G. L. Mangum, and J. K. Little, several participants prepared brief reactions to the papers, and one day was devoted to discussion of crucial problems facing doctoral graduate students in vocational and technical education, with recommended solutions. A summary of significant events and activities, and texts of the major papers are included. (SB)
