Peterson, Assistant Chairman Opal Christensen, Fiscal Assistant The purpose of the Technical Education Division is to prepare its students for placement in payroll jobs on semi-professional and trade levels. The United States Government, through the Federal and State Departments of Education, has recently furnished the Division of Technical Education with tools and equipment worth $180,000, an appropriation that places the Division in a position to train with exceptional efficiency. The work of the Technical Education Division falls into four-classes: (1) training for a broad trade through day-trade, evening, and part-time classes; (2) training in specialized trade units in full-time, part-time, and evening classes; (3) training industrial personnel in the plant on the job; and (4) training of foremen, leadmen, and supervisors in industry. As soon as the war emergency training is completed, the aircraft trade training will be broadened to qualify trainees for the Aircraft and Engine License. Regulations for the Day-trade, Evening, and Part-time courses follow. The Day-trade Preparatory Courses are of two types: the Type A Trade Course and the Type B Trade Course. The Type A Trade Course is one in which the related subjects are taught in segregated classes apart from the practical shop work. In courses of this type, fifty per cent of the school time, which must be not less than three consecutive clock hours in one day, and not less than fifteen hours a week, is given to "practical work on a useful or productive basis," and a minimum of twenty-five per cent of the school time to related subjects. The balance is given to general subjects. The time used may exceed the standards which are stated. A total of thirty clock hours of instruction a week must be carried. The Type B Trade Course 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 the teaching of related subjects. In such courses, fifty per cent of the school time, which must not be less than fifteen hours a week, is given to the combination of shop and technical instruction. The balance of the school day or thirty hours a week is devoted to general and related subjects. The time used may exceed the standards here stated. The Evening Courses are conducted at the College from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Individual programs for continued education are worked out for every student by the trade coordinators of the technical departments of the school in conjunction with a trade advisory committee. Special classes are arranged to meet the needs of people employed in the professions, in trades, and in industry. The Part-time Courses are organized to serve three groups of students: (1) those who work one-half day and desire to attend school one-half day; (2) those who are engaged in seasonable occupations or those who are temporarily unemployed who desire to register for short, intensive, full-time courses; and (3) those who have employment that permits them to attend school only one or two hours each day. |
