Abstract:
The Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE) works to improve postsecondary education through grants to postsecondary educational institutions and agencies. Such grants are awarded to non-profit organizations on the basis of competitively reviewed applications submitted to FIPSE under the First in the World (FITW) Program. This collection includes a performance report for use with FITW programs 84.116F and 84.116X. We request clearance of one annual performance report for FITW programs 84.116F and 84.116X that will serve the dual purpose of an annual and final performance report. In this collection there is one (1) form, the annual performance report for FITW programs that includes a FITW program burden statement. The collection of the requested data in the performance report is necessary for the evaluation and assessment of FITW-funded programs and for assessment of continuation funding for each grantee.

Short Statement:
The current request for revision to the collection is the result of format changes, such as consolidation of questions, incorporation of clarifying language, partner/consortium engagement, and the evaluation component of the report. The revision to the collection facilitates more streamlined data retrieval and review of information by FIPSE staff. The revision to the collection increases the burden hours from 10-17 hours to 40 hours per respondent. The increase in burden hours resulted from the incorporation of data from the evaluation component of the performance report. The increase in burden hours is deemed necessary for completion of the report. However, overall burden reduction of 870 hours is due to decrease of respondents.
