I think several things were going on that made the regional approach to vocational education grow in popularity. With the hollowing out of industrial America, fewer students were interested in going into that type of schooling. Also the facilities and materials for these programs, especially with declining enrollments, were very expensive for every school to build, staff, and maintain. Then by consolidating all the career ed. programs in one location it allows the students to have greater choice than auto, wood, or metal shop. I have been treated by a a few of my former students who began their healthcare training through the program that I mentioned up thread.
