Introductory The roles of vocational high schools as providers of field workers have been degraded dramatically because of drastic changes in technologies and of low appreciations towards the high school graduates in the job markets. To deal with these situations, continuous implementation of national strategies announced in 2000 should be enforced further. In addition, new policies for compiling nourishing visions and missions for vocational high schools by accumulating charming ideas strongly reviewed. The first thing to meet these goals for the study team was to gather issues in vocational education in high schools. And next, the team was activated to participate in those supportive processes scheduled in the actual stage of implementing national policies. Finally, supplemental guides for the successful realization of the national policies were established and suggested for the vocational high school development. 2.

At the meeting various opinions related to sound management of vocational high schools and future goals for further development of vocational education in the secondary level were pronounced and identified. An observatory chance to the a Provincial Educational Board was provided enough to understand its efforts in realizing its vocational education policies.
