Sitlington, Patricia L.; And Others
This document is a monograph in a personnel development series addressing issues that are pertinent for policy-making personnel concerned with preservice personnel preparation of vocational/special educators. Section 1 presents a review of the selected literature related to the development of personnel preparation programs and the results of a survey of existing preservice programs to prepare personnel in the area of vocational programming for special needs learners. (The survey determined design and implementation procedures of these programs.) Section 2 presents a three-stage systems approach to program development and suggests activities for implementing each stage related to the area of vocational programming for special needs learners. These three stages are outlined: program planning, program implementation, and program evaluation. Appendixes contain the interview form used in the program survey and the names and addresses of the directors of personnel preparation projects funded by the Office of Special Education in the area of career/vocational programming.
