SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks PRA authority for the Pre-
Apprenticeship Database information collection that will provide a 
valuable tool for job seekers, registered apprenticeship program 
sponsors, and American Job Center front line staff. A dedicated 
database will also provide a way for job seekers and registered 
apprenticeship programs to access pre-apprenticeship programs in their 
local areas. The Application for Pre-Apprenticeship Programs asks the 
program (1) for contact information including the program name, program 
director and an alternate point of contact; (2) about the population 
served and whether the pre-apprenticeship program has a direct link to 
a registered apprenticeship program as well as information on the 
nature of any direct link or partnership; (3) about the curriculum, 
whether a registered apprenticeship program or industry provided input 
into the pre-apprenticeship program's development, whether the training 
may lead to a credential or certificate, and whether a registered 
apprenticeship program has approved the training; and (4) about other 
services the pre-apprenticeship program provides to participants (i.e., 
supportive services beyond training to the most-in-need participants), 
any skill assessments conducted, case manager availability, whether the 
program is structured to offer a real work environment, industries the 
program services, and the occupation(s) for which training is offered. 
National Apprenticeship Act of 1937 section 1 authorizes this 
information collection. See 29 U.S.C. 50.
    This proposed information collection is subject to the PRA. A 
Federal agency generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of 
information, and the public is generally not required to respond to an 
information collection, unless it is approved by the OMB under the PRA 
and displays a currently valid OMB Control Number. In addition, 
notwithstanding any other provisions of law, no person shall generally 
be subject to penalty for failing to comply with a collection of 
information if the collection of information does not display a valid 
Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. For additional 
information, see the related notice published in the Federal Register 
on November 25, 2014 (79 FR 70205).
    Interested parties are encouraged to send comments to the OMB, 
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs at the address shown in 
the ADDRESSES section within thirty (30) days of publication of this 
notice in the Federal Register. In order to help ensure appropriate 
consideration, comments should mention OMB ICR Reference Number 201409-
1205-002. The OMB is particularly interested in comments that:
     Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
     Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the 
burden of the proposed collection of information, including the 
validity of the methodology and assumptions used;
     Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and
     Minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate 
automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting 
electronic submission of responses.
