SUMMARY:
The

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 265001
Act of 1974 (Pub. L. 93–498) to provide
training and education to the Nation’s
fire service and emergency service
personnel. The state of-the-art programs
offered by the National Fire Academy
serve as models of excellence and State
and local fire service agencies rely
heavily on the curriculum to train their
personnel. To maintain the quality of
these training programs, it is critical that
courses be evaluated after students have
had the opportunity to apply the
knowledge and skills gained from their
training. Information collected from the
evaluation forms enables the U.S. Fire
Administration and National Fire
Academy staff to monitor and
recommend changes in course materials,
individual subject selection criteria, and
to make curriculum-wide reviews and
assessments.
This proposed information collection
previously published in the Federal
Register on July 22, 2024, at 89 FR

period. FEMA received zero public
comments. The purpose of this notice is
to notify the public that FEMA will
submit the information collection
abstracted below to the Office of
Management and Budget for review and
clearance.
