or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also
requires Federal agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register

concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed
extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of
previously approved information
collection before submitting the
collection to the OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in
comments that will help:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected;
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses; and
5. Assess information collection costs.

Background and Brief Description
CDC requests OMB approval for the
Revision of a currently approved
Information Collection Request (ICR)
titled Application for Training (OMB
Control No. 0920–0017). The mission of
CDC’s Division of Scientific Education
and Professional Development (DSEPD)
is to support the development of a
competent, sustainable, and empowered
public health workforce. Professionals
in public health, epidemiology,
medicine, economics, information
science, veterinary medicine, nursing,
public policy, and other related
professions, seek professional
development opportunities (both
accredited and nonaccredited) through
two CDC learning management systems.
These two learning management
systems are Training and Continuing
Education Online (TCEO) (for
accredited courses) and CDC TRAIN (for
nonaccredited courses developed by
CDC programs, grantees, and other
funded partners). Access to quality and
accredited learning programs and
products through these two systems
allow for the public health workforce to
courses based on learner feedback. At
this time, TCEO is also used to generate
certificates of attendance and verify
training completion, review and
approve proposals for educational
activities to receive continuing
education accreditation, and ensure
compliance with mandatory
accreditation standards.
broaden their knowledge and skills to
improve the science and practice of
public health for domestic and
international impact.
The overarching purpose of this ICR
is to continually improve CDC training
activities and maintain CDC compliance
with mandatory accreditation
organization standards by efficiently
collecting information through CDC’s
Training and Continuing Education
Online (TCEO) and CDC TRAIN
systems, while navigating a future
merger that moves to using only one
system (CDC TRAIN). This revision
requests to extend current approval of
the TCEO forms, with one minor
change, namely to add two new
response options for one question on the
TCEO New Participant Registration.
This revision also requests to add CDC
TRAIN as a data collection system and
add two CDC TRAIN standard training
evaluation tools (one immediately after
the course is taken, and one 3–6 months
after the course is taken) that will be
employed on the learning management
system. This proposed change will
provide CDC with an efficient, effective,
and secure electronic mechanism for
collecting, processing, and monitoring
training-related information.
CDC will use information collected in
both systems to evaluate and improve
All data will be collected online,
using secure electronic web-based
password protected platforms.
Respondents will include educational
developers requesting accreditation for
their trainings and public health and
healthcare professionals who seek
training. No statistical methods will be
used to analyze the information
collected. CDC will use identifiable
information in TCEO to track
participant completion of educational
activities to facilitate required reporting
to earn continuing education credits,
hours, or units. Aggregate and nonaggregate data from the evaluations in
TCEO and CDC TRAIN will be used to
improve educational activities and
assess learning outcomes.
CDC requests OMB approval for an
estimated 412,600 annual burden hours.
There are no costs to respondents other
than their time to participate.
