Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has submitted 
the following information collection request to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in accordance with 
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The notice for the proposed 
information collection is published to obtain comments from the public 
and affected agencies.
    Written comments and suggestions from the public and affected 
agencies concerning the proposed collection of information are

whether the information will have practical utility; (b) Evaluate the 
accuracy of the agencies estimate of the burden of the proposed 
collection of information, including the validity of the methodology 
and assumptions used; (c) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of 
the information to be collected; (d) 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; and 
(e) Assess information collection costs.
    To request additional information on the proposed project or to 
obtain a copy of the information collection plan and instruments, call

Proposed Project

    Capacity Building Assistance Program: Assessment and Quality 
Control--New--National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and 
TB Prevention (NCHHSTP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 
(CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The CDC is requesting the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to 
grant a three-year approval to collect data that comprises Health 
Professional Application for Training (HPAT), the Training Follow-up 
Instrument, the Technical Assistance (TA) Satisfaction Instrument, and 
the Capacity Building Assistance (CBA) Key Informant Interview. The 
purpose of this information collection is to assess the degree to which 
the CDC's CBA program meets the needs of its consumers in order to 
enhance its capacity building strategy over time. The HPAT serves as 
the official application form for training and technical activities 
conducted by the Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD)/Human 
immunodeficiency virus (HIV) Prevention Training Centers' (PTCs) 
grantees and the HIV Capacity Building Assistance (CBA providers) 
grantees funded by the (CDC). The HPAT form is currently approved under 
OMB Control Number 0920-0995 and expires on October 31, 2016.

[[Page 50291]]

    The Prevention Training Centers (PTCs) and CBA providers are funded 
by CDC/Division of STD Prevention (DSTDP) and Division of HIV/AIDS 
Prevention (DHAP) over the five-year period to provide capacity-
building services that includes information, training, and technical 
assistance. CBA services are requested and provided to support health 
departments, community-based organizations, and healthcare 
organizations in the implementation, monitoring and evaluation of 
evidence-based HIV prevention interventions and programs; building 
organizational infrastructure; and community mobilization to decrease 
stigma and increase HIV testing in high risk communities. Under this 
project, there will be no duplication of information collection, 
because it builds on existing, OMB approved data collection activities.
    The PTCs and CBA providers offer classroom and experiential 
training, web-based training, clinical consultation, and capacity 
building assistance to maintain and enhance the capacity of healthcare 
professionals to control and prevent STDs and HIV.
    The CBA service recipients are healthcare professionals such as, 
physicians, nurses, and health educators, etc., who work at community-
based organizations (CBOs), health departments, and healthcare 
organizations, most of whom are funded directly or indirectly by the 
CDC, involved in HIV prevention service delivery.
    CDC is requesting to use two web-based assessments that will be 
administered to recipients of CBA services: (1) Training Follow-Up 
Instrument and (2) Technical Assistance (TA) Satisfaction Instrument. 
The first quantitative assessment will be disseminated 90 days after a 
training event to agency staff who participated in a training activity. 
It takes approximately 15 minutes to complete. The purpose of this web-
based assessment is to determine the training participants' 
satisfaction with the trainers, training materials, and the course 
pace, benefits from the training, and CBA needs, how relevant the 
training was to their work, and whether they were able to utilize the 
information gained from the training. The second quantitative 
assessment will be disseminated 45 days after a technical assistance 
event to agency staff who participated in a technical assistance and 
will take about 15 minutes. The second assessment will measure 
participants' satisfaction with the technical assistance they received, 
intended or actual use of enhanced capacity, barriers and facilitators 
to use, and benefits of the technical assistance.
    The purpose of the contractor administered CBA Key Informant 
Interview is to collect qualitative information to assess the impact of 
CBA services on organizational capacity (e.g., application of knowledge 
and skills, potential organization changes as a result of CBA services) 
and to solicit information about how the CBA program can be improved. 
These interviews will be conducted via telephone for up to 15 minutes 
with a subset of up to 40 recipients of CBA services.
    The respondents represent an average of the number of health 
professionals who receive training and technical assistance from the 
CBA and PTC grantees. The data collection is necessary (a) to assess 
CBA consumers' (community-based organizations, health departments, and 
healthcare organizations) satisfaction with and short-term outcomes 
from the overall CBA program as well as specific elements of the CBA 
program; (b) to improve CBA services and enhance the Capacity Building 
Branch's national capacity building strategy over time; (c) to assess 
the performance of the grantees in delivering training and technical 
assistance and to standardize the registration processes across the two 
CBA programs (i.e., the PTC program and the CBA program) and multiple 
grantees funded by each program.
    There are no costs to respondents other than their time. The 
estimated annualized burden hours are 8,643 hours.
