I. Background
Job Corps is the nation’s largest
residential, educational, and career
technical training program for young
Americans. Job Corps was established in
1964 by the Economic Opportunity Act
and currently is authorized by Title I–
C of the Workforce Investment Act of
1998. For almost 50 years, Job Corps has
helped prepare nearly 3 million at-risk
young people between the ages of 16
and 24 for success in our nation’s
workforce. With 125 centers in 48 states,
Puerto Rico, and the District of
Columbia, Job Corps assists students
across the nation in attaining academic
credentials, including a High School
Diploma (HSD) and/or General
Educational Development (GED), and
career technical training credentials,
including industry-recognized
certifications, state licensures, and preapprenticeship credentials.
Job Corps is a national program
administered by the U.S. Department of
Labor (DOL) through the Office of Job
Corps and six Regional Offices. DOL
awards and administers contracts for the
recruiting and screening of new
students, center operations, and the
placement and transitional support of
graduates and former enrollees. Large
and small corporations and nonprofit
organizations manage and operate 97
Job Corps centers under contractual
agreements with DOL. These contract
Center Operators are selected through a
competitive procurement process that
evaluates potential operators’ technical
expertise, proposed costs, past
performance, and other factors, in
accordance with the Competition in
Contracting Act and the Federal
Acquisition Regulations. The remaining
28 Job Corps centers, called Civilian

Conservation Centers, are operated by
the U.S. Department of Agriculture
Forest Service, via an interagency
agreement. The DOL has a direct role in
the operation of Job Corps, and does not
serve as a pass-through agency for this
program.
II. Review Focus
The Department of Labor is
particularly interested in comments
which:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
information collection on those who are
to respond, including through the use of
