The model for career education implementation defines three major functions which constitute the essential elements in the implementation process: planning, implementation, and evaluation. Emphasis is placed on the interrelatedness of implementation to both planning and evaluation of career education. The 11 subsystems involved in implementing career education are discussed: establish conceptual framework to conduct public relations/information service; establish enabling legislation/set policy; allocate/provide funds; establish advisory committee/organize staff; arrange community participation; arrange institutional participation; scheduling time; develop program guide; recruit/select/develop staff; develop/obtain software/hardware; and arrange facilities/sites. The initiation of the career education delivery system is concerned primarily with the pilot test and field test. To maintain the system, there must be a closed loop from system operation to evaluation to provide continuous feedback and direct adjustments in the operating system. The model assumes a foundation of local initiative fostered and reinforced at regional and national levels. (Author/EC)
