Abstract |
Beginning with Phase II of the National Environmental/Energy Workforce Assessment project, which addressed the capabilities of the educational community to generate an environmental workforce, definitional problems developed as to the placing of programs into media specific areas. While a great number of the programs could be categorized according to the traditional EPA media areas, other programs which were broader in scope, were not so easily allocated to these divisions. It became apparent that a broad-based category would have to be developed in order to include those programs which did not readily fit into any single category. Either these programs could be allocated to more than one media area. In order to include these unique and/or broad-based programs, a non-media specific category entitled COMPOSITE was created. Under the Phase II of the project two composite categories were defined and subsequently three volumes of educational/training program summaries were developed. |
