Abstract	This training manual was written to assist in planning and implementing follow-up studies of secondary special education programs. The model presented is based on a longitudinal study conducted by the Vermont Department of Education and the University of Vermont, which collected information from previous students with and without handicapping conditions on variables such as current occupation, employment history, postsecondary education, vocational training, social service utilization, and residential status. The sections of the training manual address: (1) planning the follow-up study (identifying the purpose, organizing the study, and identifying the sample); (2) preparing the questionnaire and training interviewers; (3) conducting the study and coding responses; (4) analyzing results; and (5) examining program implications. Appendixes comprise much of the manual and include survey forms, project checklists, a sample questionnaire, codes, letters, interviewing guidelines, and guidelines concerning access to student records. (Contains 11 references.) (JDD)
