This annual report of the V-TECS (Vocational-Technical Education Consortium of States) includes a progress report and an explanation of V-TECS itself. (V-TECS is a consortium whose principal objective is to produce catalogs of performance objectives, and performance guides for use in vocational-technical curriculum development.) First, the function of catalogs in the V-TECS system is described. A report of the V-TECS director includes a status report on catalogs, references to staff, bylaws, policies, committee structure, technical reference handbook, catalog revision and selection, curriculum development, and membership. An explanation of V-TECS' organizational structures includes a flow chart and descriptions of the functions of the administering agency, board of directors, technical coordinator task force, central staff, technical coordinators, and the project director. The V-TECS catalog development process is explained with the aid of a flow chart. Some of the areas included are catalog selection; state-of-the-art report; occupational inventory; population/sample design; field review process; and dissemination, in-service, and diffusion. The various uses of V-TECS catalogs and the V-TECS computer services and system are also discussed. A statement of catalog availability completes the report. Appendixes include names and addresses of V-TECS staff, directors, and members; glossary of terms; and catalog purchase agreement forms for reproduction license and restricted license. (CT)
