A research project was conducted to identify a framework that would provide the most effective and efficient ways of delivering inservice training and professional development services in Colorado. The project consisted of a survey of part- and full-time vocational education teachers and administrators of secondary, postsecondary, and vocational schools in Colorado and extensive on-site interviews with persons participating in professional development activities. The survey responses indicated a genuine concern about and dissatisfaction with the conditions of professional development activities in Colorado. The following conclusions were reached: responsibility for providing leadership and direction of professional development activities should rest with the State Board for Community Colleges and Occupational Education, special attention must be given to rural areas, new teachers need better access to and increased assistance from teacher trainers, and the current system of evaluating the quality of professional development activities needs to be revised. (Appendixes to this report include the vocational education teacher and administrator survey instruments, detailed reports of responses to individual survey questions, an outline of recommendations, and recommended recredentialing requirements.)
