One of a series of nine reports of Project ACTIVE (Attaining Competence for Teaching in Vocational Education), this report focuses on the criteria for assessing mastery of the professional competencies (skills) important to vocational education administrators and supervisors. An overview of competency-based vocational teacher education (CBTE) and the Florida exemplary CBTE project is provided as introduction. Part 1 describes the competency identification phase of the administration/supervision component including review of related research, report of the questionnaire survey of Florida vocational-technical administrators and supervisors, findings (competencies with mean importance ratings), and conclusions. Part 2 describes the procedures for identifying and validating of specific criteria for assessing mastery of the competencies and lists the criteria in a 12-page table under 77 competency statements, grouped into the following categories: (1) Program planning, development, operation, and evaluation, (2) supervision of instructional and supportive staff, (3) funding, budget, finances, purchasing, (4) policies, regulation, legislation, (5) operation of facilities, (6) staff development, and (7) school-community and student relations. It is recommended that the assessment criteria be reviewed and revised to fit the needs of particular preservice or inservice programs designed to prepare or upgrade administrators and supervisors of vocational education programs. Appendixes contain instruments used in the study. A bibliography is included. (TA)
