Book Description
Various factors, including an increase in the standard of living of the population throughout the Western industralized countries, the need for better-qualified workers, and the necessity of providing alternatives to unemployment for young people, have led to increased demands for training courses provided immediately after compulsory schooling. Governments and the private sector alike have responded to this demand by developing new education, training, and work experience programs aimed at youth between the ages of 16 and 19 and by introducing changes in the organization and objectives of upper-secondary education, including general, technical, and vocational courses. Although the increasing number of new programs for youth is a promising sign, the lack of coordination among the different types of services available have created a number of new problems for planners and policymakers, employers, and the youth themselves. Problems exist in the areas of articulation, dissemination of information concerning available program options, assessment, credentials, and the transition to employment. Included among those areas that demand particular attention by policymakers are the following: (1) expansion of opportunities for disadvantaged youth, (2) reforms to encourage increased participation of females in nontraditional occupations and in such nontraditional training programs as apprenticeships, and (3) resolution of the persisting discontinuities among general, technical, and vocational education.

Factors That Influence Participation in Secondary Vocational Education. MPR Reference No. 8879-400

Book Description
This study examines the factors that influence participation in vocational education among students who attended high school during the early 1990s--that is, when the focus of federal vocational education policy began to change. The factors examined included three types of characteristics of students, their parents, and their high schools: (1) demographics; (2) behaviors; and (3) expectations. The influence of each characteristic is assessed by examining the difference in vocational education participation rates among students who do and do not possess the characteristic, adjusted for other differences between students that may affect participation. Results were examined for overall 1992 high school graduates and for three subgroups: (1) students in the lowest third of eighth-grade math and reading achievement; (2) students who attended a high school where more than half of the students received a free or reduced-priced lunch; and (3) students who, before starting high school, were not planning to pursue any type of postsecondary education. The results are organized and presented in table form in appendix B. Appendix A contains "The National Education Longitudinal Study and Our Analysis File." (Contains 7 tables and 2 footnotes.).
