Vocational Training Course
[Per Press Association. Copyright .] CHRISTCHURCH, This Day.
A development of considerable importance to New Zealand education was the first vocational guidance course for those actively engaged in the work throughout the country, which was concluded at Canterbury College last week.
This course was the direct outcome of the establishment last year of a permanent vocational guidance organisation throughout the Dominion. The Education and Labour Departments and the Canterbury College authorities co-operated in providing facilities for the course, which was under the direction of Mr C. E. Beeby, Assistant-Director of Education. Those attending the course came from as far afield as Auckland and Dunedin, and represented vocation guidance officers and secretaries of youth centres, the career advisers of both public and private secondary schools, and the trained workers of the university.
