Abstract:

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) has proposed that economic growth in developing countries can best be achieved through a good delivery of technical/vocational education targeted to the specific needs of the country and its economy. In Iraq, the state regards technical/vocational education within the secondary system of education as the main source of the middle-rank skilled labour needed to satisfy the requirements of the economy. This study analyses the development of technical/vocational secondary education policies in Iraq. It seeks to examine t

Abstract:

This thesis was written as part of a process to secure funds for developing a "Preparatory Vocational Education" training academy for entry-level "Irrigation Technicians." Research revealed that funding for vocational program development was being awarded to "All-inclusive" or academy-style programs. These programs provide instruction necessary for students with zero experience to compete as entry-level journeymen. This project is based on a partial proposal draft for a U.S. Department of Labor Grant.

The purpose of this mixed methods research study was to examine factors influencing community college Career Technical Education (CTE) students in their field of study choice.
