Abstract:
This information collection (OMB 1840-0616) includes application instructions and forms for the Centers for International Business Education (CIBE) Program (CFDA Number 84.220A) authorized under Title VI of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (20 U.S.C. Sections 611 and 612). The type of collection is an extension of a previously-approved information collection (application). Centers for International Business Education (CIBEs) offer consulting services on international business and marketing to businesses in their areas, develop business language curriculum, and teach international business topics to undergraduate and graduate students. They also partner with businesses and professional associations to offer internships and other real-world experience to prepare career-ready international business students. CIBEs serve to strengthen the American economy in our increasingly interconnected world by enabling U.S. citizens and companies to compete in the international business arena. The CIBE program provides grants for up to 48 months to pay the Federal share of the cost of planning, establishing, and operating Centers for International Business Education. Eligible applicants are U.S. institutions of higher education or combinations of such institutions. This program responds to the ongoing national need for individuals with expertise and competence in world languages, international business, and U.S. global economic competitiveness; advance national security by developing a pipeline of highly proficient linguists and experts in critical world regions; and contribute to developing a globally competent workforce able to engage with a multilingual/multicultural clientele at home and abroad. Approval of this collection is necessary in order to conduct fiscal year (FY) 2022 program competitions.

Short Statement:
The PMF is no longer required of the CIBE applicants. We no longer require the PMF form as the performance measures do not collect data that can used to evaluate program outputs and outcomes. The performance measures that each applicant develop are individually specific to their project and do not collect data that inform GPRA measures. Each grantee is evaluated and assessed by an annual performance report which gathers specific information concerning their project goals and activities. The PMF is redundant and not informative to report on program evaluation. Elimination of the required form will reduce burden on the applicant.
