PROJECTED PROGRAM OF THE FLORIDA STATE BOARD
FOR VOCATIONAL EDUCATION
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 1967-68
Following is a description of the State Board's projected program of vocational-
technical education for 1967-68. It includes a review of employment opportunities
at various skill levels in non-professional sectors of the labor markets and
describes projected plans for meeting changing individual occupational needs.
Many data here were supplied in an instrument called the County Program Planning
Guide. Guides were received from nearly all counties in the state and were
summarized for this report. In addition to providing valuable information to
help plan local vocational programs, the guides have furnished information
valuable in planning for the development of the state's entire program of
vocational and technical education.
To study vocational programs and labor markets, the state was divided into six
major areas. Areas selected represent major employment districts of the state,
and also major marketing areas as defined by the Florida Development Commission.
(See attached map showing Areas A-E and major cities and counties in each area.)
The vocational programs planned in each area are shown in a separate chart along
with an estimate of employment opportunities. It is emphasized that this infor-
mation has been prepared by county vocational personnel and is on file in each
county and in the state office. Thus, needed information to plan programs to
train people for existing employment opportunities has been produced.
The following counties are included in the respective areas:

The studies indicate a number of occupations with good employment opportunities.
Also, vocational programs to train youth and adults for these occupations show
opportunities for program expansion in certain parts of the state. Among the
latter are: licensed practical nurse, registered nurse, nurses' aide, steno-
grapher, typist, data processing specialist, mechanical technician, electrical
technician, and architectural technician. Also in great demand are appliance
repairman, auto mechanic, aircraft operations personnel, draftsman, tool maker,
welder, waiter, waitress, and cook.
Many of the evaluations below are from studies of the Florida State Employment
Service, but local personnel also contributed information and evaluations
regarding employment opportunities. The code used to indicate employment
opportunities is as follows:
A--Strong demand
B--Good opportunity
C--Local supply adequate
D--Little opportunity
E--Supply exceeds demand
The code used to indicate programs planned is approximately the same as the
code supplied by the U. S. Office of Education. The code below shows supple-
mental and apprentice-related programs separately.
S--Secondary preparatory
PS--Post-secondary preparatory
C--Cooperative
A--Adult preparatory
X--Persons with special needs
E--Supplemental
R--Apprentice-related
U--Under contract
The following table shows that progress is continuing in relating occupational
education programs more closely to employment demands. In examining programs
projected for 1967-68, it seems that very few, if any, courses will be given
to train people for jobs with no employment opportunities. The latter is
particularly true for the total state labor market. On the other hand, some
counties show good employment opportunities in jobs for which no training, or
insufficient training, is provided. Illustrations include, in Area A, dental
hygienist, dental laboratory technician, ward attendant, radiologic technician,
electro-mechanical technician, fire and safety technician, auto transmission
specialist, painter, tailor, and sewing machine operator. In Area E it appears
there is a need to train more draftsmen, automotive technicians, surveyors,
commercial pilots, programmers, systems analysts, air conditioning mechanics,
auto body repairmen, automotive transmission specialists, commercial artists,
photographers, dry cleaners, machinists, and sheet metal workers.
Data from representative counties are summarized in the following table.

AREA VOCATIONAL SCHOOLS IN THE STATE
The state will continue to develop area vocational schools in 1967-68 according
to new criteria approved by the State Board. The recommended guidelines are as
follows:
A. Definitions
1. An area vocational education school means any public school or public
institution the facilities of which shall include only:
a. A technical or vocational school used exclusively
or principally for the provision of vocational edu-
cation to persons who have completed or left high
school and who are available for full-time study in
preparation for entering the labor market;
b. A specialized high school used exclusively or princi-
pally for the provision of vocational education to
persons who are available for full-time study in
preparation for entering the labor market;
c. A department of a high school used exclusively or
principally for providing vocational education in no
less than five different occupational fields to
persons who are available for full-time study in
preparation for entering the labor market; and
d. A department or division of a junior college or com-
munity college or university which, under the super-
vision of the State Board for Vocational Education,
provides vocational education in no less than five
different occupational fields leading to immediate
employment but not leading to a baccalaureate degree.
2. An occupational field shall mean a group of recognized oc-
cupations having substantial similarities common to all
occupations in the group.
B. Requirements
1. An area vocational education school shall be available to all
residents of the State or the area of the State designated and
approved by the State Board for Vocational Education. In the
case of a technical or vocational school described in sub-
paragraph (1) or a department or division of a junior or community
college or university described in subparagraph (4), such school
must admit as regular students both persons who have completed
high school and persons who have left high school.
- 28 -
2. The County Board of Public Instruction shall request the State
Superintendent of Public Instruction to recommend to the State
Board for Vocational Education approval of the designation of
an area vocational education school. A favorable recommendation
of the State Superintendent shall be required before approval.
3. No school shall be approved for any county or group of contiguous
counties of less than 50,000 population. For a county over 250,000,
one additional school may be designated. Where hardship exists
because of a county's isolation, the State Superintendent may request
the State Board to waive the minimum population requirement.
4. No school will be designated without assurance that it will have no
less than 150 full-time students or the equivalent thereof enrolled
in vocational or technical courses. A full-time equivalency shall
be a total of 810 contact hours of instructional service.
5. No school will be designated unless requested by the County Board
of Public Instruction of the county in which the facility is to
be located.
6. Offerings shall reflect labor market demands.
7. Fee simple title to the site of an area vocational education school
shall be vested in the County Board of Public Instruction of the
county of location.
8, The school shall be within 40 miles commuting distance of the
majority of the population of the service area; however, ex-
ceptions may be considered on an individual basis.
9. There shall be documentary evidence that the school board,
superintendent, and staff of the service area regard the school as
an integral part of the total program of public education.
10. Facilities for new schools shall meet presently prescribed building
standards in order to provide a modern vocational and technical
education program and shall provide for a high rate of space
utilization and flexibility to meet changing needs. A maximum of
space utilization of existing and proposed facilities should be
required before duplication is permitted.
11. The site of an approved area vocational education school shall
be approved on the basis of a survey made by the Survey Section
of the State Department of Education.
- 29 -
Thirty-one vocational-technical schools have been designated. Those open
are designated "0", and schools to open in 1967-69 are designated "N".
Schools expected to open after 1967-68 are also included in the following

PROGRAMS FOR DISADVANTAGED PERSONS
The State Consultant for Special Vocational Programs will continue to aid
county personnel in organizing programs for disadvantaged youth and adults.
The following counties have indicated interest in such programs by specific
vocational services and have identified need for federal funds for their
support.

The State Consultant will be assisted in his work to help counties organize
programs by a representative from each Section of the Division. Thus, through
collaboration by selected specialists, the Division will give emphasis to planning
programs to train disadvantaged persons for employment in a variety of occupations.
Reports from counties show some planning for new construction or renovations,
additional programs, and additional personnel to work in this area.
It is anticipated that special vocational instructional units inder the State's
Minimum Foundation Program will be allocated specifically for the support of
programs for disadvantaged persons and will be used to match federal appropria-
tions for this program purpose.
Junior High School Work Experience, which is designed for socioeconomically and
academically handicapped youth, is expanding and will, in 1967-68, include
twenty-one additional programs.

Additional plans to strengthen and expand programs in Distributive Education
include adding a teacher-educator at Florida Atlantic University and holding
a three-day conference for secondary distributive education coordinators. A
brochure to recruit teachers of distributive education will be disseminated
and a junior college mid-management guide will be completed and distributed.
Emphasis will be placed upon developing enrollments in area schools.
Office Occupations personnel will conduct special training sessions for voca-
tional directors and local supervisors during the annual in-service teacher
conference. A consultant, to work mainly with junior colleges, will be added,
and the University of South Florida will add a teacher-educator in business
education. A series of pre-school conferences will be held by the state staff
in cooperation with local administrators. The Business Education Adult Guide
will be used on an experimental basis. Florida will continue to be one of five
states participating in the Michigan State University study of the effectiveness
of the block program approach to the teaching of business education. Emphasis
will be placed upon the evaluation of vocational office education.
In Home Economics, curriculum material will continue to be developed for second-
ary schools, junior colleges, adult programs, and area vocational schools. In
July, a seminar will be conducted at The Florida State University to study home
economics education for gainful employment. The objectives will be: (1) to
present factual information regarding opportunities for gainful employment in
home economics; (2) to study personal and social requisites of successful em-
ployment, including attitudes and appreciations; (3) to involve all participants
in the quest for more programs in home economics for gainful employment.
The state Home Economics staff will participate in a workshop to revise the
Housing Guide. Research has been approved in one county to identify ways of
encouraging students to seek greater proficiency in cooking and sewing, to
strengthen the image of home economics as a career, and to develop students'
interests and capacity for critical thinking through independent study and
problem solving. In order to evaluate existing programs, a questionnaire
will be sent to each high school senior girl to determine her attitudes
toward and experiences with home economics courses.
Area representatives from each vocational service in the three geographical
supervisory areas will continue to examine proposals for federal funding for
vocational program innovations and development, and will make recommendations
to the State Coordinating Committee and the Assistant Superintendent for
Vocational, Technical, and Adult Education. It appears that, for the most
part, organization of the state into uniform supervisory areas improves
common program understandings and consultative services to the specialized
programs of the counties included in each area and also aids in projecting,

There is need to assist counties in conducting surveys to identify employment
opportunities. Sixteen counties have indicated they will seek funding assist-
ance to make employment-opportunity surveys in 1967-68.
The Vocational Program Research Coordinating Unit was established to help
provide broadened, expanded, and intensified programs of vocational education.
Specifically, the Unit will coordinate, encourage, and assist in the prepara-
tion of studies needed to improve vocational education in Florida.
During the year activities will center around the following interrelated
functions:
1. Compilation of summaries of vocational studies and experi-
mentation in progress.
2. Identification of resources available for conducting voca-
tional-technical studies and provision of assistance in
developing additional resources.
3. Identification of vocational-technical problem areas needing
study and furnishing resources for studying problem areas.
4. Evaluation or field-testing of proposals through pilot programs.
5. Dissemination of the results of research.
The functions outlined above will be achieved through cooperative activities
which utilize the special talents of:
Local vocational personnel
Junior college personnel
Vocational teacher-educators
State Department of Education personnel
Other State agency personnel
Specifically, the Unit staff will:
1. Assist in the determination of problems.
2. Contact specialists to determine their interest,
competence, and availability to work in problem areas.
3. Plan for the development of needed human resources.
4. Conduct seminars that focus on specific problem areas.

Occupational Information Including Employment Opportunities at the Local,
State, and National Levels
The Occupational Information Specialist has prepared a portfolio of occupa-
tional information for distribution to persons responsible for vocational
education program planning, including guidance counselors. The portfolio
contains current occupational information about manpower needs, job trends,
and opportunities in the local, state, and national labor markets.
The study, entitled Occupational Information for Florida Schools, will be
distributed in May, 1967. It is a loose-leaf publication which will be
continually updated as new materials become available.
Studies are also underway to gather and validate information concerning skills,
knowledge, experience, and other requirements for selected entry-level jobs.
More information is needed in planning programs. The Programs Services Section
is developing an instrument and procedures to determine requirements in a variety
of occupations. Present emphasis is upon auto mechanics, and three counties have
been selected for a pilot study in May and June. After techniques have been
refined, studies will be broadened to include other occupations.
Evaluation of Programs and Activities
Improvement of vocational-technical education requires constant evaluation.
During 1967-68, the following approach will be used in evaluating programs.
1. Progress in achieving goals of vocational-technical education
will be measured.
2. Major areas, measurement of which will serve to indicate present
status of vocational-technical education in Florida, will be
determined.
3. An approach for collecting quantitative and qualitative data
relative to each item identified will be developed.
4. Data collected in relation to aims and objectives will be
analyzed. The analyses will become the basis for:
...Program expansion, modification, and the establishment
of new programs
...Research, experimentation, and program development
...Recommendations for legislation
...Policy review
...Staff reorganization and expansion.

During the past year accreditation standards for post-secondary vocational-
technical schools and programs, exclusive of those in junior colleges which
are already covered by junior college divisional standards and those of the
Southern Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges, were developed joint-
ly by the Division of Vocational, Technical, and Adult Education and the
Accreditation Section of the Division of Teacher Education, Certification,
and Accreditation. Included are standards relating to physical plant and
facilities, instructional staff, administrative and supervisory personnel,
program content, and related factors. The standards were reviewed by a
selected group of local vocational administrators, and field-tested in three
institutions, namely, the Lindsey Hopkins Education Center (Dade County),
the Tomlinson Adult Education Center (Pinellas County), and the Mid-Florida
Technical Institute (Orange County). Further revision and refinement will
occur during the year and will incorporate suggestions of staff personnel
in the pilot schools and local administrators before they are presented to
the State Board for adoption. Work will also continue on revision of
accreditation standards for vocational programs in secondary schools. As
designed, it is believed that the instruments will stimulate leaders at all
levels of administration to recognize opportunities for strengthening
vocational and technical education.
