Synopsis

From the Foreword of this 107 page book: "This work supports CEC's policy on career education, which states that career education is the totality of experience through which one learns to live a meaningful, satisfying work life. Within the career education structure, work is conceptualized as conscious effort aimed at producing benefits for oneself and/or others. Career education provides the opportunity for individuals to learn, in the least restrictive environment possible, the academic, daily living, personal-social, and occupational knowledge and the specific vocational skills necessary for attaining their highest level of economic, personal, and social fulfillment. In order to assist students with exceptionalities to become productive workers and independent adults, special education needs to work in collaboration with parents, other educators, community services, and business. The LCCE approach serves as a model for making this happen. CEC is proud to provide this modified LCCE curriculum for use in schools and adult training environments."
