Peterson, Chairman The Technical Education Division is set up to give instruction in the following programs: Exploratory, Day Trade, Trade Extension, and Transfer. Maximum utilization of the shop space is made by scheduling classes, either day or evening, according to the needs of students and the availability of the shops. The Divisions of Weber College cooperate by offering courses for related and transfer programs. The Technical Education Division is equipped to give, for the other Divisions, special courses designed to meet the needs of students who require practical and technical work experiences. The Exploratory Program is designed to assist students who are not yet aware of their potentialities, capacities, and interests in the mechanical fields. Courses in this area are planned to give students actual physical contacts with beginning units in the basic trades. Students who plan to major in social case work and vocational counseling will find opportunity to become acquainted with the various problems and working conditions usually found in the skilled trade areas, and will gain first-hand information concerning the skill and dexterity needed in these occupations. The Day Trade Program is designed to provide instruction in actual and simulated work experiences obtained through the completing of exercises, projects and jobs, carefully selected by the instructor, in keeping with the policies of the institution. All training programs are recommended by local advisory committees composed of representatives of labor, management, and Weber College. The first two years of training under the College program are evaluated and recognized by the advisory committees as part of the first two years of apprenticeship. The Trade Extension Program is designed (1) to offer related and technical instruction to apprentices who have not yet received their journeyman certificates, but are employed on-the-job in programs related to the school training, (2) to offer instruction to journeymen in the recent development of the fields or to give refresher experience in their chosen occupations, and (3) to offer to owners, managers, and executives training in industrial organization and management. The Part-Time Program is designed to offer courses to students desiring to enter the Technical Institute Program. Courses are arranged to meet the lower division requirements of the major colleges offering Technical Institute degrees. The Day Trade Preparatory Courses are of two types: The Type A or the Type B Trade Courses.
