regular or comprehensive high schools shall have completed the
tenth grade. All other enrollees shall be at least 16 years of
age. Type C day trade preparatory classes shall be used to
train single and multi-purpose operators to meet the special
needs of persons over 16 years of age who have legally left the
full-time school and who wish brief, intensive preparation for
entrance into employment when special job requirements are
such that the equivalent of such training would enable those
trained to enter industry and meet definitely explicit job require-
ments.

2.41 Time Plans for Types A, B, and C Day Trade or Technical
 Preparatory Classes. Type A day trade preparatory classes
 shall be organized to offer trade shop instruction on a useful
 or productive basis, supplemented by additional related
 instruction which must have direct functioning value in the
 trade or occupation for which training is being given.
 Instruction in practical work will be considered to be on
 a useful or productive basis when it consists of organized,
 systematic training in processes, operations, and princi-
 ples involved which are selected with regard to the suita-

 occupation for which training is being given when it is
 taught to segregated shop groups, individually or closely

 Remedial or academic subject matter will not be considered
 related vocational instruction. Trade shop instruction shall
 be organized for at least one-half of the school day and shall
 be not less than three consecutive class periods per day in
 length. Related instruction shall be organized for at least
 one class period per day in addition to instruction given in
 the shop.

 Type B day trade classes are to be organized and operated
 on the same basis as type A classes, except that the
 related instruction is given by the trade shop instructor
 as an integral part of the shop work rather than as separate
 additional units.

 No Type A or B day trade shop course shall be established
 for less than 1080 hours of instruction and no student shall
 be scheduled for less than this amount except twelfth grade
 transfer students who transfer from a school in which such
 training was not available. In high school programs, the
