Abstract	A project was conducted to identify outcomes and procedures for measuring the occupational competency of students completing a coherent sequence of courses in career and technology education (C&TE) programs throughout Texas. The major objectives of phase 2 of the project were as follows: validate criteria for a career portfolio, integrate the career portfolio with general education, establish criteria for authentic assessment, and develop a career portfolio model. Data were obtained from the following: 4 group discussions with a total of 21 child care industry representatives and 11 horticulture industry representatives in Lubbock and Austin (Texas); input from a 10-member authentic assessment advisory committee that included project staff and representatives the Texas Education Agency; site visits to 3 child care education programs; and telephone interviews with teachers currently using authentic assessment in general education. The information obtained was analyzed and used to develop a career portfolio model that is designed for use in C&TE and that integrates occupation-specific skills, the workplace competencies identified in the Secretary's Commission on Achieving Necessary Skills report, and general education. (Contains 36 references. Appended are lists of focus group participants and employability skills and child care competencies and additional comments of the focus groups.) (MN)
