The Department of Labor (Department), as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a preclearance consultation program to provide the public and federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on the proposed and continued collection of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. Authorized by the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) of 1998 and reauthorized by the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) of 2014, this preclearance consultation program helps ensure that requested data can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden (time and financial resources) is minimized, collection instruments are clearly understood, and the impact of collection requirements on respondents can be properly assessed. Currently, ETA is soliciting comments concerning the extension of the current data collection regarding the Placement Verification and Follow-up of Job Corps Participants, using post-center surveys of Job Corps graduates and former enrollees (OMB Control Number 1205-0426), which expires December 31, 2015. Please note that once OMB approves this extension request, the Department will then submit to OMB a request for approval of revisions to this data collection as required by WIOA. A copy of the proposed Information Collection Request (ICR) can be obtained by contacting the person listed below in the addresses section of this notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    Job Corps is the country's largest residential training program for 
at-risk youth ages 16 through 24. It addresses multiple barriers to 
employment faced by at-risk youth throughout the United States. Through 
a network of 124 campuses nationwide, Job Corps offers a comprehensive 
array of career development services to prepare students for successful 
careers. Job Corps employs a holistic career development training 
approach which integrates the teaching of academic, career technical, 
employability skills and social competencies through a combination of 
classroom, practical, and work-based learning experiences to prepare 
students for stable, long-term, and high-paying jobs. In addition, Job 
Corps commits resources to provide job placement and career transition 
services to all graduates and students who have stayed with the program 
for more than 60 days, and to conduct placement follow-ups at 6 month 
and 12 months after initial placement.

II. Review Focus

    The Department is particularly interested in comments which:
     Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for an agency to properly performs its functions, including 
whether the information will have practical utility;
     evaluate the agency's accuracy in estimating 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 information collection on those who 
are to respond--including that obtained through appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic 
submissions of responses.

III. Current Actions

    This submission requests comments on three primary and two 
secondary data collection instruments that collect follow-up data about 
individuals who are no longer actively participating in Job Corps. 
These youths either graduated from Job Corps or stayed in the program 
at least 60 days but left before completing graduation requirements 
(former enrollees). These data collection activities are conducted with 
the following groups of recent Job Corps participants:
     Former enrollees who were placed in a job or school 
program; this group will be contacted 90 days after separation.
     graduates who were placed in a job or school program; this 
group will be contacted 90 days after initial placement;
     graduates who were placed in a job or school program; this 
group will be contacted 6 months after initial placement;
     graduates who were placed in a job or school program; this 
group will be contacted 12 months after initial placement.
    The data collection instrument for graduates 90 to 120 days after 
their initial placement is called Interim Checkpoint for Eligibility 
(ICFE). Administration of the ICFE facilitates the key data collection 
at 6 and 12 months. In addition, two brief questionnaires (one for 
employers and one for schools or training institutions) are used to 
collect re-verification data about initial placement for the subset of 
placed graduates and former enrollees who cannot be contacted directly.
    To maximize the comparability of the data collected from the 
different subgroups of students, the ICFE, the 90-day follow-up for 
former enrollees, and the 6-month and 12-month follow-up sections of 
the data collection instruments use modules with identical sets of 
questions on the same topics.
    The questions are designed to obtain:
     Data to re-verify the initial job or school placements of 
placed graduates and former enrollees (only in the instruments 
administered at 90 days and the ICFE)
     information about employment experiences in the previous 
week
     information about educational experiences in the previous 
week
     summary information about the work, school, and job search 
activities of those who were neither working nor in school the previous 
week
     information about satisfaction with the services provided 
by Job Corps
    Type of Review: extension without changes.
    Title: Placement Verification and Follow-up of Job Corps 
Participants.
