Public Affairs

The Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs Vocational Education Project was conducted during the academic year 1974-75. The purpose of the project was to assist the Texas Department of Community Affairs (TDCA) in carrying out its manpower planning responsibilities in the Balance of State (BOS) area of Texas under the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act. Working extensively with local manpower and vocational education planners, LBJ School project members have produced a data resource guide for local planners (Resources far Local Manpower and Vocational Education Planners, LBJ School, 1975) and, in this final report, analyses of the Fiscal Year 1975 CETA planning processes in four selected Balance of State areas, the statewide planning framework within which these processes occurred, and the linkages between CETA manpower planning and vocational education planning in BOS.
