Keeping It Going. Handbook for Implementing the Career Information System.
Oregon Univ., Eugene. Career Information System.
This handbook is designed to serve as a tool to assist school and agency staff in implementing the Career Information System (CIS), a model interagency consortium designed to provide means of direct access to current career and labor market information, based in Oregon. The first section of the handbook discusses what is known about CIS and successful strategies in various educational and agency settings. Included in this section are the following: Background of CIS, overview of the system, system components (QUEST, Occupational Descriptions (DESC), Bibliography of Occupational Books, VISIT, CLUBS, Preparation, Programs of Educational Training, Schools, and Statistical Package), staff development, and career centers at the secondary school and college levels. The second section consists of "recipes" from users for implementing the system in counseling centers and classrooms. A master index is provided that breaks individual recipes into appropriate subject groupings. The 61 recipes appear in order after each subject heading. Guidance, Language Arts, and Social Studies are the three major groups of recipes collected into learning packages. These materials are followed by shorter subject matter groupings: Science, mathematics, physical education, art, personal finance, and career clusters. Located in the career clusters section are recipes pertaining to business, industrial arts, health, child care, and food services. Appendixes contain blank recipe sheets, a user agreement form, standards for use of CIS, localized information about Oregon CISs, and a numerical list of CIS occupations. (TA)
