An exploratory study was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of determining the reading demands of navy jobs, using a methodology that identifies both the type of reading tasks performed on the job and the level of general reading skill required to perform that set of reading tasks. Next, a survey was made of the navy's job skills training program, career counseling system, and General Education Development System. Based on the results of these two efforts, a general plan was designed, outlining the initial development of a job-related reading training program and its later integration into the navy's job skills training program.
