FOR FURTHER INFORMATION:
This
information collection request seeks to
collect data from recipients of four ETA
grants that provide funding to train
unemployed, underemployed,
dislocated, and incumbent workers for
employment and to create career
pathways in healthcare and other
growing industries. The ETA seeks
clearance to conduct on-site in-depth
interviews with grantees and their
program partner staff; conduct focus
groups with grant participants; and
administer a web/telephone survey of
all grant project directors and selected
program partner staff as part of the
Green Jobs and Healthcare
Implementation Study. This project
seeks to understand the processes
surrounding the design and
implementation of the four grant
programs.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
approved by the OMB under the PRA
and displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information if the
collection of information does not
display a valid OMB Control Number.
See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. For
