One vital component involved in reaching those goals is providing training pertaining to highway activities, making sure that professionals and members of the public have access to the best, most accurate information. Towards this goal, the NHI develops and implements applicable training programs. To manage this increasingly complex task and to make the training process more accessible and useful, NHI is currently planning an automated online training management tool—the NHI Web Portal. The training evaluation and registration forms collect basic participant data for recordkeeping and basic course and instructor evaluation information for customer feedback about what NHI is doing well and what we need to improve. Respondents: Approximately 200 students submit applications for the Eisenhower Transportation Fellowship and approximately 20,000 students for the NHI. Frequency: The Eisenhower Transportation Fellowship frequency is annually. The NHI is by learning session. Estimated Average Burden per Response: The estimated burden to complete the application for the Eisenhower Transportation Fellowship is 3 hours. The estimated burden to complete each training evaluation and registration for the NHI form is 3 minutes. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: Approximately 1,600 hours annually. Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of this information collection, including: (1) Whether the proposed collection is necessary for the FHWA’s performance; (2) the accuracy of the estimated burdens; (3) ways for the FHWA to enhance the quality, usefulness, and clarity of the collected information; and (4) ways that the burden could be minimized, including the use of electronic technology, without reducing the quality of the collected information.
