Abstract:
The major purpose of this study was to determine the past, present, and possible future of the California junior colleges in providing non-transfer agricultural education. An attempt was made to learn how extensive this type of training is in the junior colleges in the state. Information secured from the colleges and the former students included: (1) the number and type of courses offered, (2) the student's educational background, and (3) the employment record of the former students. Students who entered the program in 1959 were used for the study. Whenever the former students gave permission employers were asked to give their opinion of the employee and his training.
