SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This

information collection described in

The Federal Register notice that
solicited public comment on the
information collection for a period of 60
days was published on August 19, 2016
at FR 81 FR 55470.
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection:
Training Evaluation Form.
OMB Approval Number: 2577–0271.
Type of Request: Revision of currently
approved collection.
Form Number: HUD 50945.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use:
Executive Order 13571, ‘‘Streamlining
Service Delivery and Improving
Customer Service,’’ issued on April 27,
2011, states ‘‘The public deserves
competent, efficient, and responsive
service from the Federal Government.
Executive departments and agencies
(agencies) must continuously evaluate
their performance in meeting this
standard and work to improve it.’’
Executive Order 12862 ‘‘Setting
Customer Service Standards,’’ issued on
September 11, 1993, requires agencies
that provide significant services directly
to the public to identify and survey their
customers, establish service standards
and track performance against those
standards, and benchmark customer
service performance against the best in
business.
Frequency of
response
Burden
hour per
response
Responses

To that end, the Office of Public and
Indian Housing (PIH) will use a
standardized training assessment
instrument to evaluate learners’
reactions to training or technical
assistance programs. With the
information collected, PIH will measure,
evaluate, and compare the performance
of its various training programs over
time. The design of this form follows
industry-accepted best practices,
allowing additional comparisons to
other training programs in business and
government.
Examples of how the Training
Evaluation Form is currently being used
and will be used are: To inspect HUD
insured and assisted properties,
prospective contract inspectors are
required to successfully complete HUD
Uniform Physical Condition Standards
(UPCS) inspection training. The training
consists of a pre-requisite computerbased component followed by an
instructor-led component, each of
which is evaluated using the Training
Evaluation Form. To become familiar
with the UPCS inspection process and
requirements, thereby facilitating and
enhancing maintenance of properties
and preparation for upcoming contract
inspections, public housing agency
(PHA) employees and multifamily
property owners and agents (POAs) are
able to take a computer-based UPCS
training, which is also evaluated using
the Training Evaluation Form.
PIH proposes to use the training form
in the future to evaluate training offered
to contract inspectors who will be
conducting Uniform Physical Condition
Standards-Voucher (UPCS–V)
inspections of 2.2 million Section 8
Housing Choice Voucher units.
PIH also proposes to use the training
form in the future for all other training
offered to PIH program participants and
stakeholders on major regulatory
changes. These sessions may be held as
technical assistance seminars,
conferences, briefings, or online
webinars.
Respondents (i.e., affected public):
The training evaluation form will be
completed by members of the public
and individuals at state and local
government entities who participate in
a HUD training course.
