conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and Federal agencies an opportunity to
comment on proposed and/or
continuing collections of information
before submitting them to the OMB for
final approval. This program helps to
ensure requested data can be provided
in the desired format, reporting burden
(time and financial resources) is
minimized, collection instruments are
clearly understood, and the impact of
collection requirements can be properly
assessed.
Job Corps is the nation’s largest
residential, educational, and career
technical training program for young
Americans. The Economic Opportunity
Act established Job Corps in 1964 and
it currently operates under the authority
of the Workforce Innovation and
Opportunity Act (WIOA) of 2014. For
over 51 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
126 centers in 50 states, Puerto Rico,
and the District of Columbia, Job Corps
assists students across the nation in
attaining academic credentials,
including High School Diplomas (HSD)
and/or High School Equivalency (HSD),
and career technical training
credentials, including industryrecognized certifications, state
licensures, and pre-apprenticeship
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 99
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
27 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.
