Abstract

Graduates and dropouts from six vocational training programs were compared on data taken from school records and from their responses to a questionnaire. Results revealed that age, level of education, high school completion, marital status, physical or health disabilities, and GATB scores were not significant factors in distinguishing between graduates and dropouts in vocational training programs. Two significant factors were: (1) whether the vocational school offered the student's first choice of a vocational program, and (2) whether a student transferred from a college academic program to a vocational program or directly entered a vocational program without prior college academic work.
