Title of Collection: Indian Education
Professional Development Grants
Program: GPRA and Service Payback
Data Collection.
OMB Control Number: 1810–0698.
Type of Review: An extension of an
existing information collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: State,
Local, and Tribal Governments.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 1,740.
Total Estimated Number of Annual

Abstract: The Indian Education
Professional Development program,
authorized under title VII, part A of the
Elementary and Secondary Education
Act of 1965, as amended (ESEA), is
designed to increase the number of,
provide training to, and improve the
skills of American Indian or Alaska
Natives serving as teachers and school
administrators in schools serving
American Indian or Alaska Native
students. Section 7122(h) of the ESEA
(20 U.S.C. 7442(h)) requires that
individuals who receive fmancial
assistance through the Indian Education
Professional Development program
subsequently complete a service
obligation equivalent to the amount of
time for which the participant received
financial assistance. Participants who
do not satisfy the requirements of the
regulations must repay all or a pro-rated
part of the cost of assistance, in
accordance with 20 U.S.C. 7442(h) and
34 CFR 263.8(a)(3). The regulations in
part 263 implement requirements
governing, among other things, the
service obligation and reporting
requirements of the participants in the
Indian Education Professional
Development program, and repayment
of financial assistance by these
participants. In order for the Federal
Government to ensure that the goals of
the program are achieved, certain data
collection, recordkeeping, and
documentation are necessary.
In addition, GPRA requires Federal
agencies to establish performance
measures for all programs, and the
Department has established
performance measures for the Indian
Education Professional Development
program. Data collection from
participants who have received
financial assistance under the Indian
Education Professional Development
program is a necessary element of the
Department’s effort to evaluate progress

on these measures. The Department
tracks participants who are receiving or
have previously received support
through the Indian Education
Professional Development program.
Participants must sign a payback
agreement that includes contact
information. Additionally, the
Department receives information about
participants from institutions of higher
education (IHEs) and other eligible
grantees when participants are no longer
receiving assistance through the Indian
Education Professional Development
program. When the performance period
is complete, the participant data are
collected from the grantee and also from
the participants.
