A fall 1975 survey was conducted to appraise Bakersfield College's work experience program. Three survey instruments were developed. The student survey was designed to obtain the characteristics of work experience students, what programs at the college and fields of employment they were involved in, and how they perceived the purposes of the program. The instructor/coordinators were asked questions concerning their teaching and employment background and plans, and their perceptions of the work experience program. Certificated staff, in addition to their perceptions of the program, were asked their attitudes toward the mix of general education and occupational courses a student should take. Respondents included 614 of the 1,053 students in the program (58.4 percent), 27 instructor/coordinators (72.9 percent), and 100 certificated staff members (40.5 percent). Most faculty and a significant minority of instructor/coordinators and students saw the program as primarily attracting students seeking easy units and veterans' benefits. Considering that 84.5 percent of work experience students are veterans, it is impossible to unequivocally deny this interpretation. However, those who are familiar with the program believe it is achieving its purpose of improving job skills and relationships. Responses are tabulated and the survey instruments are appended.
