Orientation to supervised occupational experience (SOE) programs, planning an individual SOE program, and keeping records on an SOE program are examined. Discussed next are such topics pertinent to leadership in horticulture/agriculture as understanding the National Junior Horticultural Association and the Future Farmers of America as a part of vocational horticulture/agriculture education, duties and responsibilities of youth club officers and members, and developing basic parliamentary skills. Each of these units or problem area packets includes some or all of the following components: suggestions to the teacher, a content outline, a teacher's guide, information sheets, student worksheets or assignment sheets and keys, demonstrations, job sheets, transparencies, a discussion guide for transparencies, and sample test questions and a teacher's key.
