Abstract	A project developed an operational definition of and designed a conceptual framework for evaluating two-year postsecondary educational customized training programs. The definition specifies that customized training requires the following: (1) contracts; (2) payments; (3) relationships to economic development strategies; (4) the delivery of training designed to improve work force competencies; and (5) adaptation to the needs of external clients. Four categories further differentiate training approaches: custom-designed courses, modification of courses, alternative delivery of courses, and courses for special populations. The framework contains sets of variables that describe the context for customized training. The variables reflect characteristics of employees/employers, institutions, communities, and states that provide a basis for the way customized training is conducted. The process identifies the client needs and proceeds through subprocesses: negotiation, job analysis, instructional design, implementation, program evaluation, and administration. It is necessary to focus on the outcomes of training and to determine how products are linked to individual outcomes. (30 references) (NLA)
