Abstract	The Job Upgrading Program helps school dropouts and potential dropouts either return to or adjust to the regular school program or become prepared for the world of work. Trainees are given the opportunity to take an abbreviated school program, receive highly individualized personal counseling, learn about the factors for achieving success in a job, and obtain a subsidized work experience in order to put into practice what they have learned. A fulltime job placement service for those not returning to the regular school program is also available to Title I funded centers. This program is now in operation in 16 high schools in the city of Detroit. The purpose of the "Manual of Procedure and Curriculum Guide" is to serve the Job Upgrading teacher-coordinator in the performance of his responsibilities as well as to provide administrators and others with information and understanding of the job. There are three main types of individuals in the program at any one time: (1) those who may be employed without a supervised work experience--these individuals may need only the counseling and help offered in morning training sessions; (2) those who need a supervised work experience--these individuals receive the same type of training as those in the first group plus a supervised work experience; and, (3) those who may return to fulltime school--these individuals usually attend classes in the regular high school in addition to the training provided for the above two types.
