One of six documents describing the Management Information System for Vocational Education (MISVE), this document is designed as a reference manual for MISVE data input clerks and technical support personnel. (MISVE was designed to provide users with an advanced management information system (MIS) capability that could effectively respond to current information needs of vocational education managers, to their new and emerging data needs, as well as adapt to unique operational requirements.) This manual includes coding instructions, scheduling, keypunch instructions, and card layout formats for the MISVE prototype source data instruments. It also provides information needed by MISVE technical staff to modify and revise input procedures to reflect local changes in source data instrument format, content, and specifications. The appendixes include cross references between source data instruments and data fields. (SH)
