This guide is designed to familiarize counselors with the use of the Student Profile as a tool for placing students in cooperative vocational education programs in New Jersey. (The Student Profile, a two-page form, was developed to assist in the process of obtaining information from students' permanent records for the purpose of placing cooperative industrial education students in jobs.) Described in the handbook are the sections of the profile that deal with the following areas: vocational interests, aptitudes, achievement, and work attitudes. A copy of the Student Profile concludes the guide. (MN)
