Show The Day Trade Preparatory Courses comprise Type A and Type B as follows: The Type A Trade Course. This is one in which the related subjects are taught in classes separate from the practical shop work. In these courses, 50 per cent of the school time, which must be at least 3 clock hours per day, and not less than 15 hours a week, is given to practical work on a useful or productive basis. A minimum of 25 per cent of the school time is devoted to related subjects. The balance is given to general subjects. A total of 30 clock hours of instruction per week must be carried. The Type B Trade Course. This is one in which the related instruction is given by the shop teacher, incidental to the shop instruction, with no separation of the total time into definite periods for teaching the related subjects. In such courses, 50 per cent of the school time, which must be not less than 15 hours a week, is given to the combination of shop and technical instruction. The balance of the school day is devoted to general and related subjects. A total of 30 clock hours per week must be carried. Training programs are recommended by local advisory committees composed of representatives of labor, management, and Weber State College. The first two years of education and training are evaluated and recognized by the advisory committees as part of the first two years of apprenticeship. The Trade Extension Program. This program is designed: (1) To offer related and technical instruction to apprentices who have not yet received their journeyman certificates but who are employed on the job and must complete a program of related school training; (2) to offer instruction to journeymen in the recent development of their fields or to give refresher experience in their chosen occupations; (3) to offer owners, managers, and executives training in industrial organization, management, and supervision, and, (4) to offer short term retraining programs for those individuals or displaced persons who must learn a new skill because of the technological changes in industry.
