One of a set of twelve documents describing the Career Planning Support System (CPSS) and its use, this guide is designed to help the CPSS coordinator become familiar with CPSS and his or her role. (The Career Planning Support System is a comprehensive guidance program management system which (1) provides techniques to improve a high school's career guidance program, (2) focuses on the skills students need to make decisions about and pursue their life goals, and (3) offers the school step-by-step directions in planning, developing, implementing, and evaluating an upgraded career guidance program that is compatible with student career development needs and resources available in the school and community.) The five sections in this guide lead the coordinator through an inspection of CPSS materials and include exercises to explain the purpose and content of the system. The five sections cover CPSS materials, content and perspective of CPSS, the coordinator's role in CPSS, implementing CPSS, and the coordinator's role as a facilitator of change. It is suggested that activities be performed sequentially and within a one-week period. (TA)
