Public Law 94-482 authorized the establishment of a Na- tional Center for Research in Vocational Education to conduct applied research on problems of national significance in voca- tional education and promote leadership development for state and local leaders in vocational education.

The Center was evaluated by Technassociates under a con- tract with the Department of Education, Office of Planning, Bud- get and Evaluation (ED/OPBE).
