- College Adapter Program Tutoring Center and High School Equivalency Preparation. Manpower Education Monograph Series, Volume III. College Preparation Dropouts Equivalency Tests High School Graduates Inner City Labor Force Development Postsecondary Education Secondary Education Study Centers Technical Occupations Tutorial Programs Vocational Education The College Adapter Program (CAP) is a program to train inner-city young men and women with high potential for post-secondary technical training. These young men and women either have dropped out of high school, or have been insufficiently prepared in high school for further educational training. The Tutoring Center monograph is a statement of those considerations, objectives, and procedures that the CAP staff believes are important for a comprehensive tutoring center. The primary purpose of the Tutoring Center monograph is to present some practical suggestions for methods to design an inclusive tutoring center, all of which have proven successful at CAP, and models that can be adapted to other programs. The suggestions that the CAP staff believes are significant for an effective tutoring center are presented here: the definition and purposes of a tutoring center; selection and categorization of materials; use of materials; selection and utilization of staff; scheduling of student progress; evaluation of a tutoring center's operation; and, the design and use of a library. The High School Equivalency Preparation monograph is a statement of those considerations, objectives, and procedures that the CAP staff believes are important for effective high school General Equivalency Diploma preparation.
