A follow-up study of the 1967-1968 bookkeeping graduates of the Dalles Senior High School

Abstract

The problem in this study was the lack of available knowledge concerning the application of bookkeeping by graduates of The Dalles Senior High School who have completed the first-year course in bookkeeping. The need for such information has been demonstrated by the lack of agreement among those responsible for determining the instructional objectives of the course. A follow-up study of the 1967-1968 bookkeeping graduates was conducted to provide that information. The major reason for conducting a follow-up study of the 1967-1968 bookkeeping graduates of The Dalles Senior High School was to determine the application of a course in high school bookkeeping to the selection of a vocation or additional education in preparation for employment.
