ABSTRACT: The final report of the Transitional Employemnt
Experimental Model (TEEM) Project, a research and
development project providing a potential model for a large
scale manpower absorption program in times of economic
need,
is presented. One major purpose of the project was to
demonstrate the viability of providing suitable job
placement for the disadvantaged through a two-step
training/placement process which included specialized
vocational services through "host agencies" and the
opportunity for permanent employment through "receiving
agencies." Five transitional models were developed and
tested utilizing the host/receiving agency concept to
sample
all potential markets where placement activities could
occur. An extensive examination of the project includes:
summaries and full statements of project hypotheses,
recommendations, and findings; history and background of
TEEM; and project operation. Appended material takes up
over
half of the document and includes: The TEEM handbook,
tables
showing the number of months participants were placed in
host and receiving agencies, summary of
supervisor/counselor
questionnaires, and a summary of participant
questionnaires.
The two-step hiring concept is recommended for use during
an
economic downturn, but it is not known whether the TEEM
model would be suitable in a different economic climate.
