This manual is designed to help teachers and tutors implement a 4-day modular course in the skills and processes necessary to get things done. The aims and content of the course are described. A course summary is provided along with a model course program that includes parallel lists of objectives, suggested learning activities and text materials, and notes for tutors. Instructional materials are provided to help students develop leadership, observation, evaluation, problem-solving, listening, and target-setting skills. Follow-up procedures for use in applying and reinforcing the skills addressed in the course are outlined. Concluding the guide is a chapter on student evaluation. Appendixes to the manual include a summary of the development and initial results of the course, a brief list of the skills that employers value in young people, a sample letter to employers or sponsors, and a checklist for a successful course.
