The Education series documents the programmatic activities of the Department and contains correspondence, memoranda, class evaluations, and teaching materials. In addition, the series includes material that documents the administrative functions of the department, including class schedules, correspondence, memoranda, meeting minutes, program descriptions, publicity, and program statistics. Materials pertaining to vocational training programs are organized under Employment and Training.
