As a product of the Career Change Project by the Technical Education Research Centers, this book describes specific career change programs currently operated by a variety of organizations and includes other information relevant to career change. The book is divided into six major sections. The first section is an introduction which includes chapters on career change in perspective, a career change model and support services, and identification of career change programs. The second section of the book describes four career change programs in business and industry. Section 3 discusses three programs in educational institutions. Three programs for career change in government agencies are presented in section 4. The fifth section discusses two programs which are organized by professional associations. The final section of the book presents a short discussion of other career change programs throughout the United States and briefly describes two current career change research projects. (A more detailed description of the career change programs discussed in this book may be found in the project's case histories--see note.) (LRA)
