Business-Education Cooperation: A Review of Selected Urban Programs.

Brief descriptions of individual models of business/education cooperation in ten U.S. cities are presented in this report. The models were either developed under the aegis of local Chambers of Commerce or depict major urban partnerships of which the Chambers are a part. Cities with such programs include Boston, Cincinnati, Dallas, Hartford, Minneapolis, New Orleans, New York City, Pittsburgh, San Francisco, and Seattle. The first part of the report summarizes data on the goals and structure of the cooperative programs and on the administrative structures of the various Chambers of Commerce involved. The second part describes the individual programs. (GC)
