Abstract	This report summarizes and assesses the planning and first-year implementation of the Industrial Technology Program created through a partnership between South Shore Vocational Technical High School (SSVT) in Hanover, Massachusetts, and Procter & Gamble (P&G). It is a guide for the development of effective education/industry partnerships. An executive summary and introduction are followed by a description of the planning and development processes that created the program. The third section lists 68 competencies in 9 categories included in the joint industrial technology curriculum and discusses special program features. The fourth section assesses the curriculum and first-year outcomes as they relate to the expectations of P&G managers and machine operators, SSVT, labor officials, and other manufacturing firms. The fifth section reviews the demand for industrial technology programs in a vocational education setting. It considers occupational demand, management's perceptions regarding training needs and the role of vocational education, and career awareness programs to create demand for vocational/industrial technology education. The sixth section describes trends in vocational education and how partnerships fit in. A sample is provided of industrial partnership programs and articulation collaborations in Massachusetts. The report concludes with recommendations for SSVT, Massachusetts vocational-technical schools, and Massachusetts manufacturers. Appendixes include a list of interviewees, interview instruments, and a 42-item annotated reference list. (YLB)
