Government Agency Management. A Major Occupational Group in the Public Service Cluster.
Gwinnett County Schools, GA.
Part of a course designed to acquaint high school students with basic information concerning careers in community service, this student guide is one of nine (each with accompanying teacher's manual) which constitute a course entitled "Orientation to Public Service." Focus in the units covered by the guide is on government agency management, one of eight major public service occupational groups covered in the course. The student is introduced to the organization and functions of government at all levels; to job families (general management, fiscal management, contract management, personnel management, and public information and public affairs); and to qualifications and employment prospects. Contents are divided into several units of reading and related activities, some designed for completion independently and some by groups. One unit is a field trip to a government agency. (The accompanying teacher's manual is CE 013 660. The course is the first of a series of three developed as a comprehensive approach to vocational skill development in public service for Georgia high schools. Also available is a guide for the total three-quarter program, Applied Program of Public Service, CE 013 652.) (JT)
