participants that attend the courses to
ensure the right audiences are targeted
in an environment where last-minute
changes to the participant list are
common. However, it is feasible that
these forms will transition to a Learning
Management System (LMS) enabling
participants to complete online.
• The OBP interest sheet is a hard
copy form laid on OBP’s booth table for
attendees to provide their contact
information. There has been some
consideration to shifting this to an
electronic format, but current booth
technology does not fully support this
transition.
These forms do not negatively affect
small businesses.
• Failure to collect this information
could result in questions of liability
and/or remuneration for volunteers in
CISA/ISD/OBP and reluctance to seek
volunteer involvement as a result. This
would negatively affect the overall
quality of the program in delivering
these trainings to private sector security
providers, federal, state and local
responders, and public safety personnel.
• Failure to collect contact
information from those who visit the
OBP booth would greatly limit OBP’s
ability to stay engaged with or grow its
stakeholder base or provide the most
relevant products/services to those
stakeholders.
• This collection does not include a
pledge of confidentiality that is not
supported by established authority in
statute or regulation. This collection of
information is covered by PIA DHS/
ALL/PIA–006 DHS General Contact List.
This is a reinstatement of an existing
collection. No changes were made to the
collection instruments.
