An integrated approach to education for special needs students is presented in this curriculum guide for ACCEPT (Academic Cooperative Career Education Program Today). Introductory information covers a definition of special needs students (educationally and socioeconomically disadvantaged and physically and mentally handicapped, including emotionally disturbed); statement of philosophy and concepts of ACCEPT; and the twenty-two behavioral objectives of the program. It is suggested that a cooperative work experience in local industry/business be implemented in conjunction with the two phases of the ACCEPT program. The seven units, designed to be added or extracted from to meet student needs, relate to phase one of the program, dealing with behavioral aspects that are common to all work experiences. Following the units for phase one, sample training plans for phase two are presented. (This phase deals with the development of concepts, skills, and attitudes directly applicable and meaningful to the student, relating to career goals and demands of a specific training station job.) Sample training plans are provided to give teachers practical suggestions for integrating specific and useful instruction in academic classes. Plans are presented for a painter, floor layer, nurse's aide, roofer apprentice, and worker at a building supplies outlet. Each plan describes the job, the skills needed to perform the job successfully, and the academic skills relevant to that job. A bibliography of instructional media, games, and books is appended. Evaluation instruments are also included. (SH)
