This document examines what has happened to career education since the 1981 repeal of the Career Education Incentive Act and where it appears to be going in the future. In his monograph "Trends in Career Education: Implications for the Future," Kenneth B. Hoyt examines past, present, and future trends in the field from the perspective of seven components of career education. These components are as follows: promoting and implementing partnerships between the private sector and public education system; equipping persons with general employability, adaptability, and promotability skills; helping persons in career awareness, exploration, and decision-making activities; reforming education by infusing a careers emphasis in classrooms; making work a meaningful part of a total life-style; relating education and work so that better choices of both can be made; and reducing bias and stereotyping, thereby protecting freedom of career choice. Karen R. Shylo's monograph, "Effective Leadership Strategies for a Successful Career Development Program: A Case Study," examines the way in which Ohio implemented its career development program in the 1980s by following a nine-step implementation strategy that was designed to maintain career education as a viable program. The program is examined in terms of the following implementation strategies: develop a rationale for the program, get support from the top, design the program as part of a larger human resource system, target the managers, bolster the basics, make sure the power to head the program is at hand, develop a variety of delivery systems, support the program with organizational policy, and evaluate the program and promote its outcomes.
