Skill Clinics: Community Approaches.
Office of Vocational and Adult Education (ED), Washington, DC.
Intended for people interested in developing a skill clinic, this document contains examples of community and workplace approaches to skill clinics. It describes skill clinics that make it easier for adults to pursue further education and training by offering one-stop service, coordination, assessment, referral, and career counseling. Nine community approaches represent the following types: community college, community college skill center, secondary school, state system, comprehensive adult education, area vocational-technical school, technical institute, correctional services, and community-based organization network. Three skill clinics based in the workplace and tailored specifically to meet employee needs are partnerships between a business and an educational organization. The last skill clinic described is a federal sector design located in the Office of Personnel Management/Internal Revenue Service. Each description of a skill clinic contains these components: type, location, description, services, and contact person with address and telephone number. (YLB)
