Information Collection Request Title:
Education and Training of Healthcare
Providers as a Coordinated Public
Health Response to Violence Against
Women
Abstract: The Office on Women’s
Health (OWH) recently received an
approval by OMB 0990–0422 which
expires August 31, 2015; however OWH
is now requesting a three year extension
to further conduct the pilot and
evaluation of an eLearning course
developed as part of the ‘‘Education and
Training of Healthcare Providers as a
Coordinated Public Health Response to
Violence Against Women Project’’. The
purpose of this data collection is to
gather data from healthcare providers
who have volunteered to participate in
the pilot and evaluation of an e-learning
course designed to educate and train
healthcare providers on how to respond
to intimate partner violence (IPV)
against women. Information obtained
from this data collection will be used to
identify areas of improvement and
measure the effectiveness of the elearning course in educating healthcare
providers about IPV, addressing
attitudinal barriers to IPV screening, and
increasing IPV screening in clinical
practice. This data will also help
identify any problems in the navigation
and functioning of the e-learning course.
The results of this evaluation will assist
OWH in making revisions to the course
and subsequently coordinating a
national launch, making the e-learning
course available to healthcare providers
across the U.S. All data collection forms
and activities will be used within a year
time frame.
Likely Respondents: The respondents
for this pilot and evaluation are
healthcare providers (physicians,
nurses, and social workers) who are
members of professional associations
and who provide services in Nevada,
Oklahoma, and South Carolina.

Proposed Project
Capacity Building Assistance
Program: Assessment and Quality
Control—New — National Center for
HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB
Prevention (NCHHSTP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The CDC is requesting the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) to grant
a three year approval to collect data that
comprises the Training Follow-up
Instrument, the Technical Assistance
Satisfaction Instrument, and the
Capacity Building Assistance (CBA) Key
Informant Interview. The purpose of
this information collection is to assess
how well the CDC’s CBA program meets
the needs of its consumers in order to
enhance its capacity building strategy
over time.
The PTCs and CBA providers are
funded by CDC/Division of STD
Prevention (DSTDP) and Division of
HIV/AIDS Prevention (DHAP) over the
five-year period to provide capacitybuilding services that includes
information, training, and technical
assistance. CBA means the provision of
free (not for fee) information, training,
technical assistance, and technology
transfer to individuals, organizations,
and communities to improve their
capacity in the delivery and
effectiveness of evidence-based

interventions and core public health
strategies for HIV prevention. CBA is
provided to support health departments,
community-based organizations, and
healthcare organizations in the
implementation, monitoring and
evaluation of evidence-based HIV
prevention interventions and programs;
building organizational infrastructure;
and community mobilization to
decrease stigma and increase HIV
testing in high risk communities. CBA
services are requested by health
departments, community-based
organizations, and healthcare
organizations and also offered
proactively. Under this project, there
will be no duplication of information
collection, because it builds on existing,
OMB approved data collection
activities.
The PTCs and CBA providers offer
classroom and experiential training,
web-based training, clinical
consultation, and capacity building
assistance to maintain and enhance the
capacity of healthcare professionals to
control and prevent STDs and HIV. The
CBA service recipients are healthcare
professionals who work at communitybased organizations (CBOs), health
departments, and healthcare
organizations, most of whom are funded
directly or indirectly by the CDC,
involved in HIV prevention service
delivery. Their positions include HIV
educator, clinical supervisor, HIV
prevention specialist, clinician,
outreach worker, case manager director,
program coordinator, program manager,
of knowledge and skills, potential
organization changes as a result of CBA
services) and to solicit information
about how the CBA program can be
improved. Administered by the project
contractor, the CBA key informant
interviews will be conducted via
telephone with a subset of up to 40
recipients of CBA services. The
interview takes approximately 15
minutes to complete.
The 7,400 respondents represent an
average of the number of health
professionals who receive training and
technical assistance from the CBA and
PTC grantees during the years 2010 and
2011. The data collection is necessary
(a) to assess CBA consumers’
(community-based organizations, health
departments, and healthcare
organizations) satisfaction with and
short-term outcomes from the overall
CBA program as well as specific
elements of the CBA program; (b) to
improve CBA services and enhance the
Capacity Building Branch’s national
capacity building strategy over time; (c)
to assess the performance of the grantees
in delivering training and technical
assistance and to standardize the
registration processes across the two
CBA programs (i.e., the PTC program
and the CBA program) and multiple
grantees funded by each program.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The estimated
annualized burden hours for this data
collection activity are 3,710 hours.
disease intervention specialist, partner
services provider, physicians, nurses,
and health educators, etc.
CDC is requesting to use two webbased assessments that will be
administered to recipients of CBA
services: (1) Training Follow-Up
Instrument and (2) Technical Assistance
Satisfaction Instrument. The first
quantitative assessment will be
disseminated 90 days after a training
event to agency staff who participated in
a training activity. It takes
approximately 12 minutes to complete.
The purpose of this web-based
assessment is to determine the training
participants’ satisfaction with the
trainers, training materials, and the
course pace, benefits from the training,
and CBA needs, how relevant the
training was to their work, and whether
they were able to utilize the information
gained from the training. The second
quantitative assessment will be
disseminated 45 days after a technical
assistance event to agency staff who
participated in a technical assistance.
This instrument takes approximately 12
minutes to complete. The purpose of the
second assessment is to assess
participants’ satisfaction with the
technical assistance they received,
intended or actual use of enhanced
capacity, barriers and facilitators to use,
and benefits of the technical assistance.
The purpose of the CBA Key
Informant Interview is to collect
qualitative information to assess the
impact of CBA services on
organizational capacity (e.g., application
