Which of the following was NOT one of the six primary objectives identified in 1953 for the NJATC?

The choice indicating development of international standards is the correct answer because, at the time the NJATC (National Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee) was established in 1953, the focus was primarily on the national landscape of apprenticeship and training standards specific to the United States, rather than on international standards. The original objectives aimed at enhancing and regulating the quality of training within the country to create a standardized approach to apprenticeship programs.

The objectives focused on creating and revising national standards, establishing a national office and staff to oversee operations, and promoting local joint committees which were pivotal in setting training frameworks. These efforts were intended to strengthen the apprenticeship system domestically, which does not encompass the concept of international standards.
