Illinois Multifarious, Student-Based Management-Oriented Information Project. Final Report.
Illinois State Office of Education, Springfield. Div. of Adult Vocational and Technical Education.
Pursuant to developing an interactive system for planning and managing vocational education programs, the project focused on methods of obtaining student supply and manpower demand information. The goal was to operationalize a student data base that would facilitate planning and regulatory requirements of the Illinois Department of Adult, Vocational, and Technical Education, and to operationalize manpower demand data base projections. The development of both components included systems design, refinement, and testing. Model data files developed for the two components included (1) a student file encompassing all students in vocational courses, containing social security number, name, birth date, sex, courses taken, and program area; (2) a public school file identifying vocational programs, courses, and staffing patterns; (3) a teacher file containing social security number, birth date, experience, full-time employment, and courses taught; (4) data on program completers and supply from private training sources; (5) an occupational profile of the Illinois labor force; and (6) a manpower demand file of current to five-year requirements. (This report includes a ninety-five-page appendix which contains information, forms, and procedures used in developing the project.) (BL)
