Abstract	To change a conventional, academically oriented general education school system into one whose curriculum reflects concepts of career education at all grade levels in harmony with existing teaching/learning processes, Project VIGOR staff held a teacher orientation workshop to introduce the career education concept as envisioned by Oregon's Career Education Program, which is basically a program of vocational cluster courses for junior and senior high students. Project VIGOR has had two major directions of thrust; the first has been the inclusion of cluster courses in food service, child service, industrial mechanics, and general business into their most closely existing high school departments. The second aspect of the project is the orientation of administration and staff of the total school system to the career education goals. An awareness of career education as a part of the general curriculum is a major accomplishment, and this awareness has been stimulated through news releases, advisory committee activities, and orientation of professional staff through workshops, meetings, special projects, and others. In 1970-71, 142 students enrolled in the vocational cluster courses and 531 pre-registered for 1971-72. It was recommended that the project be continued with additional staff orientation and involvement and increased articulation. (SB)
