This guide gives information on the skills and knowledge that students should acquire in a secondary-level business education program. Section

listed are based on the results of task inventory evaluations in both
Anchorage and Fairbanks, Alaska. Section 2 contains a skills card for
evaluating competency completion by students. The third section is a resource
list of textbooks, software magazines, and other materials needed by
teachers. The appendix provides information on the task inventory results
