008.01(G) VOCATIONAL TRAINING.

Vocational training is organized educational programs directly related to the preparation of individuals for employment in current or emerging occupations. It may consist of both academic and occupational course work. Basic skills education such as work-focused general education and language instruction may be counted as long as it is a necessary and regular part of the vocational training. Vocational training programs should be limited to activities that give participants the knowledge and skills to perform a specific occupation. The completion of vocational training leads to the attainment of a vocational certificate, diploma, or an Associate degree.
