VerDate Mar<15>2010 14:03 Oct 10, 2012 Jkt 229001 This ICR covers two follow-up surveys conducted 15 and 30 months after randomly assigning a sample of approximately 6,000 Workforce Investment Act (WIA) customers included in the WIA Evaluation into control or treatment groups; cost data collected on three forms—a program costs questionnaire, a staff activity log, and a resource room sign-in sheet—for use in estimating the costs of WIA services received by sample members for the benefit-cost analysis; and collection of veterans data—consisting of qualitative data on veterans served at the 28 Local Workforce Investment Areas (LWIAs) participating in the WIA Evaluation. For the Veterans Supplemental Study (VSS) qualitative analysis, additional questions and several activities will be added to the WIA Evaluation’s second round of site visits to the 28 LWIAs. A separate quantitative analysis will use two sets of administrative data that States already report to the DOL–WIA Standardized Record Data and WagnerPeyser data. Because the data are already reported to the DOL, there is no additional burden associated with this quantitative data collection. This information collection is subject to the PRA.
