burden and maximize the utility of government information, invites the

DATES: CDC must receive written comments on or before December 11, 
2017.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by Docket No. CDC-2017-
0088 by any of the following methods:
     Federal eRulemaking Portal: Regulations.gov. Follow the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 
(PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal agencies must obtain approval from 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for each collection of 
information they conduct or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also requires 
Federal agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal Register 
concerning each proposed collection of information, including each new 
proposed collection, each proposed extension of existing collection of 
information, and each reinstatement of previously approved information 
collection before submitting the collection to the OMB for approval. To 
comply with this requirement, we are publishing this notice of a 
proposed data collection as described below.
    The OMB is particularly interested in comments that will help:
    1. 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;
    2. 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;
    3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and
    4. 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 
submissions of responses.
    5. Assess information collection costs.

Proposed Project

    Public Health Associate Program (PHAP) Alumni Assessment (OMB 
Control No. 0920-1078, Exp. 08/31/2018)--Revision--Office for State, 
Tribal Local and Territorial Support (OSTLTS), Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) works to 
protect America from health, safety and security threats, both foreign 
and in the U.S. CDC strives to fulfill this mission, in part, through a 
competent and capable public health workforce. One mechanism to 
developing the public health workforce is through training programs 
like the Public Health Associate Program (PHAP).
    The mission of PHAP is to train and provide experiential learning 
to early career professionals who contribute to the public health 
workforce. PHAP targets recent graduates with bachelors or masters 
degrees who are beginning a career in public health. Each year, CDC 
enrolls a new cohort of up to 200 associates in the program. Associates 
are CDC employees who complete two-year assignments in a host site 
(i.e., a state, tribal, local, or territorial health department or non-
profit organization). Host sites design their associates' assignments 
to meet their agency's unique needs while also providing on-the-job 
experience that prepare associates for future careers in public health. 
At host sites, members of the public health workforce (referred to as 
``host site supervisors'') mentor associates. PHAP's goal is that 
alumni will seek employment within the public health system (i.e., 
federal, state, tribal, local, or territorial health agencies, or non-
governmental organizations), focusing on public health, population 
health, or health care.
    CDC began ongoing systematic PHAP evaluation efforts in 2014. 
Evaluation priorities focus on continuously learning about program 
processes and activities to improve the program's quality and 
documenting program outcomes to demonstrate impact and inform decision 
making about future program direction.
    The purpose of this project is to collect information from two key 
stakeholder groups (host site supervisors and alumni) via two distinct 
surveys. The information collected will enable CDC to: (a) Learn about 
program processes and activities to improve the program's quality, and 
(b) document program outcomes to demonstrate impact and inform decision 
making about future program direction. CDC may publish the results of 
these surveys in peer-reviewed journals and/or in non-scientific 
publications such as practice reports and/or fact sheets. Project 
revisions include the following adjustments: (1) Expansion from one 
data collection instrument to two (both of which will inform 
improvements to the Public Health Associate Program (PHAP) and document 
evidence of quality and value); and (2) name change to reflect this 
adjustment from ``Public Health Associate Program (PHAP) Alumni 
Assessment'' to ``Public Health Associate Program (PHAP): Assessment of 
Quality and Value.''
    The respondent universe is comprised of PHAP host site supervisors 
and PHAP alumni. CDC will administer both surveys electronically and 
provide a link to the survey Web sites in the email invitation. CDC 
will deploy the PHAP Host Site Supervisor survey every year to all 
active PHAP host site supervisors. The total estimated burden is 20 
minutes per respondent per survey.
    CDC will administer the PHAP Alumni Survey at three different time 
points (1 year post-graduation, 3 years post-graduation, and 5 years 
post-graduation) to PHAP alumni. Assessment questions will remain 
consistent at each administration (i.e., 1 year, 3 years, or 5 years 
post-PHAP graduation). However, CDC will update the language for each 
survey administration to reflect the appropriate time period. The total 
estimated burden is 8 minutes per respondent per survey. The total 
annualized estimated burden is 213 hours. There are no costs to 
respondents except their time.
