Math and science teachers are ranked highest on the most needed list. In some developing countries, a student's ability to score high on entrance exams determines whether he or she will attend high school. According to one Peace Corps volunteer serv ing on Togo, the education system is such that it is harder for a Togolese student to get into high school than into college. It is important that increasing numbers of people in developing nations gain post secondary education to fill the leadership positions in their countries that tional workshops are being plann ed for the Commonwealth Campuses.

Other skills badly needed by the Peace Corps include in dustrial arts and vocational education, mechanics, medical lab technology, and occupational and physical therapy. In Zaire, for instance, children suffer from malnutrition because there is no skilled labor to main tain vehicles to transport food. "There is an incredible need in Zaire for mechanics who can repair and maintain vehicles," says Baudouin de Marcken, former Peace Corps country director for Zaire. It is critical that Zaire begin to develop voca tional and training courses in everything, from auto repair to carpentry, according to de Marcken.
