This module on legal compliance is intended to help guidance personnel in a variety of educational and agency settings gain skills in (1) implementing Federal and state legislative administrative procedures and requirements, and (2) influencing the development or improvement of such procedures and requirements. The module is one of a series of competency-based guidance program training packages focusing upon specific professional and paraprofessional competencies of guidance personnel. Patterned after the Performance Based Teacher Education Modules developed at the National Center for Research in Vocational Education, the modules teach competencies for planning, supporting, implementing, operating, and evaluating guidance programs. The module follows a standard format that includes the following components: (1) an introduction that gives the user an overview of the purposes and content of the module; (2) a section that provides information about the module goal and a list of the competencies covered in the module; (3) a reading containing information on each of the competencies; (4) learning experiences consisting of an individual activity, individual feedback, and a group activity; (5) evaluation techniques that can be used to measure what workshop participants need prior to training and what they have accomplished through training; and (6) an annotated list of resources. Appendixes include the text of the Career Guidance and Counseling Bill, request for proposal, and sections of the Texas state plan for vocational education. (KC)
