dc.description.abstractThe Technical and Vocational Teacher Education program of the University of Education, Winneba in Ghana, includes a compulsory supervised industrial attachment (SIA). This gives student teachers the opportunity to relate theory to practice and to be well prepared upon completion to prepare their students for success in further education and the workplace. This paper which is part of a larger study that assessed the SIA program focuses on the attainment of program objectives and program usefulness. Data were collected from 13 lecturers, 90 students and 22 workplace supervisors through a self‐completion questionnaire. The reported findings were based on four‐point Likert‐type items relating to the attainment of program objectives (5 items) and program usefulness (5 items). Descriptive statistics, one‐ way analysis of variance at 0.05 level of significance and Scheffe′s post hoc test were used to analyze the data. The results showed that lecturers, students and workplace supervisors rated highly elements of program usefulness and the attainment of program objectives. Additionally, there was uniform agreement in the responses of respondents as there were no statistically significant differences in their ratings of all the items relating to attainment of program objectives and program usefulness except for their ratings regarding the opportunity for host organizations to reduce recruitment and training costs of workplace staff during attachment (Asia‐Pacific Journal of Cooperative Education, 10(1), 1‐17)
