The Center for Vocational and Technical Education is developing a system for acquiring and using occupational information effectively in designing and revising curricula. This interim report is offered before completion of the major project so that the occupational information collected during the development of the system may be available for use by curriculum developers, instructors, and others involved in planning and conducting vocational and technical programs. Sophisticated data processing machines can only carry out the prepared instructions worked out step by step by highly trained data processing workers. The purpose of this survey was to collect occupational information that would be useful for revising and designing one- and two-year post-high school data processing programs.
