The programs are listed alphabetically by State. Each entry includes the program's study scope (adult basic education, general educational development diploma, English as a second language, continuing education, general adult education, or vocational education), career education goals, methods used to include career education in the curriculum, and a description of career activities. Each program administrator's address and telephone number are listed. (Author/BP)
