Overview of This Information

    1. Type of Information Collection:
    Approval of a Revised Collection.
    2. Title of the Forms:
    FBI National Academy: End-of-Session Student Course Questionnaire.
    FBI National Academy: General Remarks Questionnaire.
    3. Agency Form Number, if any, and the applicable component of the 
department sponsoring the collection:
    Form Number: 1110-0050.
    Sponsor: Training Division, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), 
Department of Justice (DOJ).
    4. Affected Public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract:
    Primary: FBI National Academy students that represent state and 
local police and sheriffs' departments, military police organizations, 
and federal law enforcement agencies from the United States and over 
150 foreign nations.
    Brief Abstract: This collection is requested by FBI National 
Academy. These questionnaires have been designed to collect feedback 
from National Academy students regarding their courses and instructors. 
The results are used to help determine if the National Academy program 
is functioning as intended and meeting its goals and objectives. We 
will utilize the students' comments to improve the current curriculum.
    5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of 
time estimated for an average respondent to respond:
    Approximately 1,000 FBI National Academy students per year will 
respond to two types of questionnaires. (1) FBI National Academy: End-
of-Session Student Course Questionnaire and (2) FBI National Academy: 
General Remarks Questionnaire. It is predicted we will receive a 75% 
response rate for both questionnaires.
    Each student will respond to seven Student Course questionnaires--
one for each course they completed. The average time for reading the 
questionnaire directions is estimated to be two (2) minutes; the time 
to complete each questionnaire is estimated to be approximately 13 
minutes. Thus the total time to complete one Student Course 
questionnaire is 15 minutes and 105 minutes to complete all seven 
questionnaires.
    For the FBI National Academy: General Remarks Questionnaire, 
students will respond to one questionnaire. The average time for 
reading the questionnaire directions is estimated to be two (2) 
minutes; the time to complete the questionnaire is estimated to be 
approximately 10 minutes. Thus the total time to complete the General 
Remarks Questionnaire is 12 minutes.
    The total estimated time for both questionnaires per respondent is 
approximately 117 minutes or about 2 hours.
    6. An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection:
    1. Given that the approximately 75% of those surveyed (or 750) will 
respond, to the total public burden for completing all questionnaires 
is 1,462.5 hours.
