The Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs
Vocational Education Project was conducted during the
academic year 1974-75. The purpose of the project was to
assist the Texas Department of Community Affairs (TDCA)
in carrying out its manpower planning responsibilities in the
Balance of State (BOS) area of Texas under the Comprehensive
Employment and Training Act. Working extensively
with local manpower and vocational education planners,
LBJ School project members have produced a data resource
guide for local planners (Resources far Local Manpower
and Vocational Education Planners, LBJ School, 1975)
and, in this final report, analyses of the Fiscal Year 1975
CETA planning processes in four selected Balance of State
areas, the statewide planning framework within which these
processes occurred, and the linkages between CETA manpower
planning and vocational education planning in BOS.Public Affair
