Abstract:
There were four (4) rounds of TAACCCT grants originally included under this approved PRA package, and the fourth and final round of grants is still active. ETA requires grantees to submit Quarterly Progress Reports with a narrative summary each quarter. Every fourth quarter, grantees submit an Annual Performance Report with standardized outcome measures that will include aggregate data for program participants for the following ten outcome measures: unique participants served/enrolled; total number of participants who have completed a grant-funded program of study; total number still retained in their programs of study; total number retained in other education programs; total number of credit hours completed; total number of earned credentials; total number pursuing further education after program of study completion; total number employed after program of study completion; total number retained in employment after program of study completion; and the total number of those employed at enrollment who receive a wage increase post-enrollment. The data collection is also designed to help ETA and grantees assess progress made against the grant statements of work, or grant plans, as submitted to ETA during consideration for funding. The descriptions of capacity-building, activities, and deliverables in the Quarterly Progress Report allows grantees flexibility to show successes or challenges against their own unique programs. In addition, ETA requires standard quantitative data collection in order to help monitor participants served and outcomes achieved across grants in a similar way. ETA requires grantees to collect and report on the common performance measures that are applied across other programs administered by ETA. The common measures help to describe the core purposes of related investments: How many people found jobs? Did people stay employed? What were the average earnings?

Short Statement:
Because three of the four rounds of TAACCCT grants have ended, and the fourth round will have only one quarterly progress report and one annual performance report left to submit during the extension, the burden has been reduced. The new totals have changed from 848,032 annual responses to 86,818 total annual responses, and from 66,390 burden hours to 13,638 burden hours.
