To familiarize supervisors, interviewers, and employer relations personnel with U. S. Employment Service (USES) testing, the trainee's handbook cites five training objectives. They are: simplify understanding of tests, describe employment service tests, mention advantages and limitations, show how to determine need for tests, and describe a testing program. Seventeen pages are devoted to simple graphics and test forms to illustrate those objectives. One page describes the requirements for a test development study, and another discusses the USES grading system. Four and one-half pages comprise a review test with true-false, multiple-choice, and fill-in-the-blank sections. (AG)
