Abstract	Phase II of an Institute aimed at improving decision-making skills of the participants (State Directors, ABE Coordinators, Assistant State Directors, Special Project Directors and Assistant Directors) so as to enhance the management of Adult Basic Education in the U. S. and its territories is discussed in this report. Part I of the report describes the setting or environment of the Institute, the participants, objectives, findings, conclusions, and recommendations. In Part II, the design and models used in implementing and evaluating the Institute are discussed and analyzed. The training model "Learning by Objectives" is presented as a flow-chart and discussed. The development of a model "An Approach to Decision-Making" is described. The data collected in measuring the objectives and in analyzing related aspects are discussed in Part III of the report. This part also includes the individual post-conference evaluation data analysis and the results of Learning-Group and staff reviews at the conclusion of the Institute. Part IV identifies some of the critical factors and limitations related to both success and failure of the Institute. The six appendixes are (1) the daily schedule, (2) staff and participant roster, (3) sub-contracts and reports, (4) Post Institute Evaluation form, (5) "Twelve Angry Men" rating form, and (6) progress reports issued during the project year.
