Control and Prevention is responsible
for administering and monitoring the

Centers for Public Health Preparedness
(CPHP) Program. The purpose of the
CPHP Program is to strengthen terrorism
and emergency preparedness by linking
academic expertise to state and local
health agency needs. The program
brings together colleges and universities
with a common focus on public health
preparedness to establish a national
network of education and training
resources. Of these institutions, 27 are
accredited Schools of Public Health
funded through a five-year Cooperative
Agreement for years 2004–2009. This
program addresses the public health
goals described in ‘‘A National Strategy
for Terrorism Preparedness and
Response: 2003–2008 Strategic Plan,’’
specifically Imperative Five, a
Competent and Sustainable Workforce.
Critical objectives under this Imperative
are to: (1) Increase the number and type
of professionals that comprise a
preparedness and response workforce;
(2) deliver certification and
competency-based training and
education; (3) recruit and retain the
highest quality workforce; and (4)
evaluate the impact of training to ensure
learning has occurred.
CDC requests OMB approval for a
period of one year to collect information
beginning in the fall of 2009. CDC is
undertaking a summative evaluation of
the CPHP Program encompassing the
period of the current Cooperative
Agreement. In order to complete this
evaluation, CDC is proposing three data
collection instruments to gather
information describing the program’s
processes and outcomes. These are: (1)
CPHP Interview Instrument; (2) CPHP
Customer/Partner Survey Instrument;
and (3) CPHP Customer/Partner FollowUp Interview Instrument. Collectively,
these instruments are needed in order to
gather, process, aggregate, evaluate, and
disseminate CPHP program information.
The information will be used by CDC to
document progress toward meeting
established program goals and
objectives, to evaluate outcomes
generated by the collective work of the
27 Centers, to inform the development
of a new public health preparedness
education and training cooperative
agreement program, and to respond to
data inquiries made by CDC and other
agencies of the federal government.
The CPHP Interview Instrument will
be used to guide a telephone interview
process with key CPHP staff. Questions
will gather perceptions about the CPHP
Program from the perspective of CPHP
staff. It is estimated that there will be a
total of 81 respondents with an
estimated time for data collection of 90
minutes. The CPHP Customer/Partner
Survey Instrument will be used to
gather information from representatives
of organizations that have received
training or technical assistance from the
CPHP Program. It will be administered
electronically with an option for paper
copy administration. It is estimated that
there will be one request per respondent
and a total of 171 respondents with an
estimated time for data collection of 20
minutes. The CPHP Customer/Partner
Follow-Up Interview Instrument will be
used to gather more in-depth
information on the same categories of
questions from the Survey Instrument. It
is estimated that there will be a total of
20 respondents with an estimated time
for data collection of 45 minutes. The
annualized estimated burden hours are
193.5.
There are no costs to respondents
except their time.

Immunogenic Peptide from NGEP
Protein for Developing Prostate Cancer
Vaccines
Description of Technology: The NGEP
protein is only present in the prostate
and is typically overexpressed on
prostate cancer cells. Hence, as a novel
prostate tumor-associated antigen (TAA)
it is a good target for developing active
immunotherapies to kill prostate cancer
cells. For example, NGEP could be used
in a vaccine to activate an individual’s
immune system to recognize and kill
NGEP-expressing prostate cancer cells.
However, TAAs typically are not very
effective in inciting an immune
response. This can be overcome by
identifying portions (epitopes) of the
