SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 3506 of the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35) requires that the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) provide interested Federal agencies and the public an
early opportunity to comment on information collection requests. OMB
may amend or waive the requirement for public consultation to the
extent that public participation in the approval process would defeat
the purpose of the information collection, violate State or Federal
law, or substantially interfere with any agency's ability to perform
its statutory obligations. The Director of the Information Resources
Management Group publishes this notice containing proposed information
collection requests prior to submission of these requests to OMB. Each
proposed information collection, grouped by office, contains the
following: (1) Type of review requested, e.g., new, revision,
extension, existing or reinstatement; (2) Title; (3) Summary of the
collection; (4) Description of the need for, and proposed use of, the
information; (5) Respondents and frequency of collection; and (6)
Reporting and/or Recordkeeping burden. OMB invites public comment at
the address specified above. Copies of the requests are available from
Patrick J. Sherrill at the address specified above.

Type of Review: New.
Title: School-to-Work Progress Measures.
Frequency: Annually.
Affected Public: Not-for-profit institutions; State, local or
Tribal Gov't, SEAs or LEAs.
Reporting and Recordkeeping Burden:
Responses: 1,025
Burden Hours: 6,800
Abstract: The Progress Measures Survey focuses on four elements of
Title IV, Section 402 of the School-to-Work Opportunities Act: student
participation in school-to-work; institutional and employer
participation; leveraging of funds; and outcomes. The participation
measures are designed to track elaboration of local partnership School-
to-Work (STW) systems; the leveraging measures are intended to capture
efforts to develop sources of funding that will enable STW to be self-
sustaining after sunset of the legislation; and the outcomes measures
are indicators of achievement of the Act's primary goals. These data,
collected on a regular basis, will provide important evidence of state
and local partnership commitments to the legislative mandate.
