abstract:
Primary: This information collection
is FBI National Academy students that
represent state and local police and
sheriffs’ departments, military police
organizations, and federal law
enforcement agencies from the United
States and over 150 foreign nations.
This information collection is FBI
National Academy. These
questionnaires have been designed to
collect feedback from National Academy
graduates and their supervisors to
determine the type of impact the
National Academy program had on their
organization. The results are used to
help determine if the National Academy
program is functioning as intended and
meeting its goals and objectives. We will
utilize the students’ comments to
improve the current curriculum.
5. An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: Approximately 1,000 FBI
National Academy Post-Graduate
Questionnaire for Graduates. It is
predicted we will receive a 50%
response rate. The average response
time for reading the questionnaire
directions for the FBI National Academy
Post-Graduate Questionnaire for
Graduates is estimated to be two (2)
minutes; the time to complete each
questionnaire is estimated to be 30
minutes. Thus the total time to complete
the Post-Graduate Questionnaire for
Graduates is 32 minutes.
The total estimated time to complete
each questionnaire per respondent for
each group is 32 minutes.
6. An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The estimated public burden
associated with this collection given
that approximately 50% of those
surveyed or (500 from each group) will
respond, the total public burden for
completing all questionnaires is 533
hours.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Producer Price Index (PPI), one of
the Nation’s leading economic
indicators, is used as a measure of price
movements, as an indicator of
inflationary trends, for inventory
valuation, and as a measure of
purchasing power of the dollar at the
primary-market level. It also is used for
market and economic research and as a
basis for escalation in long-term
contracts and purchase agreements.
PPI data provide a description of the
magnitude and composition of price
change within the economy, and serve
a wide range of governmental needs.
This family of indexes are closely
followed, monthly statistics which are
viewed as sensitive indicators of the
economic environment. Price data are
vital in helping both the President and
Congress set fiscal-spending targets.
Producer prices are monitored by the
Federal Reserve Board Open Market
Committee to help decide monetary
policy. Federal policy-makers at the
Department of Treasury and the Council
of Economic Advisors utilize these
statistics to help form and evaluate
monetary and fiscal measures and to
help interpret the general business
environment. In addition, it is common
to find one or more PPIs, alone or in
combination with other measures, used
to escalate the delivered price of goods
for government purchases.
In addition to governmental uses, PPI
data are regularly put to use by the
private sector. Private industry uses PPI
data for contract price adjustment. For
