The major quantitative finding was that unemployed adult vocational learners made moves towards maturation. The finding has important ramifications for all future vocational trainees since it is the researcher's formative theory that maturation is a subset of competence in every vocational domain. Also, as a consequence of Lifetime Goal-setting the lives of unemployed adult vocational trainees were positively changed as they took action towards the achievement of their goals; in particular, individual dispositions in terms of values, interests and attitudes became more positive and empowering. Implications for Implementation found few barriers and many opportunities for not-for- profit and for-profit service sector implementation of LTGS.
