520 $a Findings and conclusions. Adult education, professional development, and Cooperative Extension literature support the findings of this study. North Carolina and Texas Cooperative Extension Services both uses core competencies in their professional development system while Ohio and Oklahoma use stages and objectives. Educators in each focus group saw both positive and negative attributes to the North Carolina Extension professional development model. The focus group opinions varied by program responsibility and years of service in Cooperative Extension. If a professional development model similar to the North Carolina Cooperative Extension model is implemented in the Oklahoma Cooperative Extension Service, the model would need to be flexible enough to meet a variety of needs of County Educators. These findings are consistent with two other professional development studies conducted by Belzer (2005) and Kutner & Tibbetts (1997).
