This study explored the need for and impact of in-service education and training as a component in a career development plan for civilian education specialists in the Naval Education and Training Command. The education specialists, their supervisors, and heads of activities where education specialists were employed were surveyed to determine their assessement of the value and benefit of in-service education and training, the need for such education and training by the individual and by the organization, and the support for in-service education and training which was considered appropriate. / The responses of education specialists as a group and the responses of their supervisors and commanding officers were analyzed, and differences between the groups were examined. Data were collected and displayed by five functional areas in which education specialists work to permit comparison between functional areas. / The study concluded that both education specialists and their supervisors saw benefit and value in further education and training to the individual and the organization. However, if management determines in-service education and training is needed, it must provide incentives to stimulate its use. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 44-02, Section: A, page: 0398. / Thesis (Educat.D.)--The Florida State University, 1983.
