The purpose of this study was to obtain information that will make it possible to plan for the development of occupational competency assessment procedures in a rational manner, based on the expressed needs of occupational educators and employers. Eight fields were selected for scrutiny: Accounting, Agribusiness, Data Processing, Day Care, Electronics Technology, Management, Police Science, and Secretarial Science. Specifically the study attempted to: (1) verify and delineate the existence of needs for measurement and evaluation services appropriate for community colleges and other postsecondary institutions concerned with occupational training; (2) ascertain the extent to which assessment needs are being met with existing evaluation measures; (3) specify the areas in which there are unmet needs for evaluation services; (4) develop suitable approaches for devising the needed measures; (5) evaluate the process for the entire project to determine specifically if it is a feasible model for developing measurement and evaluation services in other areas of postsecondary education.
