Abstract

he conference program reported in these proceedings was part of a continuing cooperative effort in Region VI of the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation to develop the competencies and backgrounds of professional workers in the region. Each year the universities in the region which have rehabilitation counselor training programs (Missouri, Minnesota, and Iowa) and other institutions in the region, conduct workshops and conferences based on topics which the state and regional leaders believe are needed for staff development. These training meetings, which are supported by Office of Vocational Rehabilitation training grants, have brought to the staffs of state, and to some degree private agencies, programs which would not be feasible on an individual basis.
