Abstract | The document represents the concluding phase of a two-part study analyzing data to determine the impact of institutional training on women. It is an exploratory data collection effort to assess factors which appear to affect the performance of women during institutional training in 12 sites. Skills center staff and employment service personnel were interviewed. Questionnaires were administered to a sample of students attending classes at the time of the field review, and data were also collected from records of a sample of previous enrollees, to provide information on enrollee characteristics, completion, and placement rates. Data collected point up major findings concerning women in manpower programs. (1) Female trainees are generally being trained in the same occupation as that of their last full-time job. (2) There is little enrollment of trainees in courses traditionally reserved for the opposite sex. (3) Manpower training for women is directed primarily toward upgrading previously acquired skills and affords few opportunities for training in alternative occupations. (4) There is evidence of stereotyping in training placement of female enrollees--by both personnel and trainees themselves. Other relative findings show lower average wages and narrower ranges of training choices for women. A four-page summary of the complete MDTA project has been included. (MW) |
