| Summary: | The purpose of this publication is to help states organize and operate programs under title viii of the national defense education act of 1958 for the training of chemical and metallurgical technicians. Suggested is a rationale for curriculum development which includes -- (1) identification of individual occupations, (2) analysis of job characteristics such as work performed, ability required, worker characteristics, tools, and materials, (3) clustering of occupations by common training requirements, and (4) construction of a curriculum based upon the requirements of the occupational cluster tempered by institutional considerations. Descriptions are given for 11 jobs in chemical and metallurgical technologies and include assistants, analysts, and technicians. A job factor comparison chart shows the chemical and metallurgical activities in each of the 11 occupations. A training requirements analysis form is included as a specimen of a method of determining curriculum for the two technologies. This document is available as gpo number fs 5.280--80016 for 25 cents from superintendent of documents, U.S. Government printing office, Washington, D.C. 20402. (jm) |
