The study was conducted to determine the ways in which representatives of school corporations and teacher organizations prepared for collective bargaining in 1974. The participants in the study were spokesmen for employer and employee negotiating teams who responded to a questionnaire sent to administrators and teachers in a random sample to fifty school corporations and teacher organizations in Indiana.Findings of the study were:1. A majority of teacher organizations polled the teachers to ascertain what they wanted in a contract.2. Almost three-fourths of the administrative teams attended workshops, conferences, or seminars on collective bargaining to prepare for the collective bargaining process.No other preparations were considered to be among the three most important preparations for collective bargaining by a majority of either school administrators or spokesmen for teacher organizations.State teacher organizations and school boards associations exerted limited influence upon the local participants in the collective bargaining process.
