Abstract:
The National Fire Academy Long-Term Evaluation Form will be used to evaluate all National Fire Academy (NFA) on-campus resident training courses. Course graduates and their supervisors will be asked to evaluate the impact of the training on both individual job performance and the fire and emergency response department/community where the student works. The data provided by students and supervisors is used to update existing NFA course materials and to develop new courses that reflect the emerging issues/needs of the Nation's fire service.

Short Statement:
For FEMA Form 078-0-2A (students/trainees), the previously approved burden hours were 742.5; the current estimated annual hour burden is 450, resulting in a decrease (program change) of 293.5 hours. The decrease in burden hour's results from moving away from a paper based form to an electronic online format. As a result of these changes, students/trainees spend less time completing and submitting the form. For FEMA Form 078-0-2 (supervisors), the previously approved burden hours were 382.5; the current estimated annual hour burden is 247.5, resulting in a decrease (program change) of 135.0 hours. The decrease in burden hour's results from moving away from a paper based form to an electronic online format. As a result of these changes, supervisors spend less time completing and submitting the form.
