(SE) Directory of Accredited Allied Medical Educational Programs 19694910 Council on Medical Education American Medical Association The absence of detailed information within any of the categories of this 1969-70 Directory is the result of consolidating the separate lists published in past years. For example, the blank areas under the column entitled Certificate or Degree are not to be interpreted as suggesting that a specific program does not grant a degree or certificate, but rather that the information received by the Editors was incomplete in that specific category. A supplement to the 1969- 70 edition of the Directory will include such information, separate lists by occupation, and copies of the Essentials.
