Time per Response: 5 minutes per

Abstract: The Corporation for
National and Community Service
(CNCS) has procured a Learning
Management System (LMS) to enhance
training and technical assistance at the
agency. The Office of Research and
Evaluation (ORE) is using this tool to
enhance existing methods of teaching
and learning about program evaluation
and research topics. ORE has
programmed 12 Evaluation Core
Curriculum courses on the LMS for
users to explore interactively. In order
to enhance the utility of the courses,
ORE would like implement knowledge
checks in the form of topically focused
pre/post-test questions so that
participants can identify knowledge
gaps that need to be addressed with
further learning. This will also enable
ORE to see where common learning
issues arise, and where additional
resources should be targeted. CNCS also
seeks to continue using the currently
approved pre/post-test questions, which
were cleared under a generic clearance,
until the current information collection
is approved by OMB. The currently
approved information collection expired
on October 31, 2017.
Comments submitted in response to
this notice will be summarized and/or
included in the request for OMB
approval. Comments are invited on: (a)
Whether the collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
collection of information; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information to be collected; (d)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology;
and (e) estimates of capital or start-up
