As a federally funded year-long exemplary project, Hawaii's first Occupational Information and Guidance Service Center aimed to effect a closer relationship among schools, industry, and government in order to increase vocational awareness in students. Resource materials for school counselors and agencies involved in youth employment were developed, occupational guidance workshops and conferences were conducted, occupational information materials were disseminated, and program budgeting and evaluation was carried out. Initially, two intensive job training classes in food services were conducted for disadvantaged students in the Model Neighborhood Areas. Although a need exists for career education on a statewide basis in Hawaii, program problems and deficiencies caused the State Director of Vocational Education to recommend termination of the program at the end of the fiscal year. Resource materials, a bibliography, and a program evaluation are included. (AG)
