The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Administration’s (SAMHSA)
Center for Substance Abuse Treatment
(CSAT) will continue to monitor
program performance of its Addiction
Technology Transfer Centers (ATTCs).
The ATTCs disseminate current health
services research from the National
Institute on Drug Abuse, National
Institute on Alcohol Abuse and
Alcoholism, National Institute of Mental
Health, Agency for Health Care Policy
and Research, National Institute of
Justice, and other sources, as well as
other SAMHSA programs. To
accomplish this, the ATTCs develop
and update state-of-the-art, researchbased curricula and professional
development training.
Each of the forms is described below.
There are no changes to any of the
forms. Sixty percent of the forms are
administered in person to participants
at educational and training events, who
complete the forms by paper and pencil.
Ten percent of the training courses are
online, and thus, those forms are
administered online. The remaining
thirty percent is made up of those 30day follow-up forms that are distributed
to consenting participants via electronic
mail using an online survey tool.
Event Description: The event
description form asks approximately 10
questions of the ATTC faculty/staff for
each of the ATTC events. The approved
form asks the event focus, format, and
publications to be used in the event.
Technical Assistance and Meeting
Pre-event Information: The ATTCs
provide technical assistance, which is a
jointly planned consultation generally
involving a series of contacts between
the ATTC and an outside organization/
institution during which the ATTC
provides expertise and gives direction
toward resolving a problem or
improving conditions. A meeting is an
ATTC sponsored or co-sponsored event
in which a group of people representing
one or more agencies other than the
ATTC work cooperatively on a project,
problem, and/or a policy. For technical
assistance and meeting events, the preevent information form asks
approximately 10 questions of each
individual who participated in the
event. The approved form asks the
participants to report their demographic
information, education, work setting,
responsibilities, and training goals.

Satisfaction measures after each
technical assistance and meeting event
and at 30-day follow-up will be
collected using the CSAT Government
Performance and Results Act (GPRA)
Customer Satisfaction forms. The
burden has been approved under OMB
# 0930–0197.
Training Forms
Trainings are defined as ATTC
sponsored or co-sponsored events,
mainly focusing on the enhancement of
knowledge and/or skills of counselors
and other professionals who work with
individuals with substance use
disorder-related problems. The study
design for trainees will include a
description of each event, and a pre-post
survey that collects identical
information at initiation of ATTC
courses/trainings, at the completion of
the course/training, and again after 30
days.
Pre-Event Information Form for
Training: The pre-event information
form for training asks approximately 10
questions of each participant in the
training. The approved form asks the
participants to report demographic
information, education, work setting,
responsibilities, and training goals.
Post-Event Information Form for
Training: The Post-Event Information
Form for Training asks approximately
30 questions of each individual that
participated in the training. The
approved form asks the participants to
report demographic information,
satisfaction with the quality of the
training and training materials, and to
assess their level of skills in the topic
area.
Followup Information Form for
Training: The Followup Information
Form for Training asks about 10
questions of about 25% of consenting
participants. The approved form asks
the participants to report demographic
information, satisfaction with the
quality of the training and training
materials, and to assess their level of
skills in the topic area.
This information will assist CSAT in
documenting the numbers and types of
participants in ATTC events, describing
the extent to which participants report
improvement in their clinical
competency, and which method is most
effective in disseminating knowledge to
various audiences. This type of
information is crucial to support CSAT
in complying with GPRA reporting
requirements and will inform future
development of knowledge
dissemination activities.
The chart below summarizes the
annualized burden for this project.
