Abstract: The AIDS Education and
Training Centers (AETC) Program,
under the Title XXVI of the Public
Health Service Act, as amended,
supports a network of regional and
national centers that conduct targeted,
multi-disciplinary education and
training programs for health care
providers treating persons with HIV.
The AETCs’ purpose is to increase the
number of health care providers who are
effectively educated and motivated to
counsel, diagnose, treat, and medically
manage individuals with HIV infection,
and to help prevent high risk behaviors
that lead to HIV transmission.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: As part of an ongoing effort
to evaluate AETC activities, information
is needed on AETC training sessions,
consultations, and technical assistance
activities. Each regional center collects
information on AETC training events,
and is required to report aggregate data
on their activities to HRSA. The data
provides information on the number of
training events, including clinical
trainings and consultations, as well as
technical assistance activities conducted
PO 00000
Frm 00042
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
by each regional center, the number of
health care providers receiving
professional training or consultation,
and the time and effort expended on
different levels of training and
consultation activities. In addition,
information is obtained on the
populations served by AETC trainees,
and the increase in capacity achieved
through training events. Collection of
this information allows HRSA to
provide information on training
activities and types of education and
training provided to Ryan White HIV/
AIDS Program recipients, resource
allocation, and capacity expansion.
Likely Respondents: Trainees are
asked to complete the Participant
Information Form once a year and
trainers are asked to complete an Event
Record for each training event they
conduct during the year. In addition,
each regional AETC (8 total) will
compile these data into a data set and
submit to HRSA once a year.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose or provide the information
requested. This includes the time
needed to review instructions; to
develop, acquire, install and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose
of collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information; to train
personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information; to search
data sources; to complete and review
the collection of information; and to
transmit or otherwise disclose the
information. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this Information
Collection Request are summarized in
the table below.
