Abstract:
This print item is a hard copy of the disk version of a directory of non-traditional training and employment projects for women in California. The disk (MSWord for Windows, v.6.0a) is also included. The item was reformatted for the OTAN Forum of electronic documents and posted in CDE Info/Model Programs. The Compendium is designed to be a tool for identifying existing education and training programs that encourage and support women in non-traditional occupations and is intended to assist Service Delivery Areas/Private Industry Councils (SDAs/PICs) and local educational agencies (LEAs). The Compendium includes data on 177 projects of the following types: JTPA 8% Education Partner Projects provided by SDAs/PICs and LEAs; New Horizons, STEP-UP projects, Gender Balance projects, JTPA-VATEA (Vocational and Technical Employment Act) Partnership projects, VATEA Projects Targeted to Incarcerated Women, and LINKS projects at the California Community Colleges; projects implemented at the secondary level; and six demonstration projects funded by the U.S. Department of Labor.
