Abstract:
The Office of Special Education Program’s Personnel Development Program aims to increase the supply of qualified personnel in the field of special education. The program awards competitive grants to Institutions of Higher Education to support scholars who are preparing to provide special education and related services to children and youth with disabilities. Scholars who receive funding agree to work in the field of special education or related services for two years for each year of support they receive. The Personnel Development Program Data Collection System collects data from grantees, scholars, and employers who verify that scholars are employed in the field of special education or related services. This data collection serves three program needs. First, data from grantees, scholars, and employers are necessary to assess the performance of the Personnel Development Program on its Government Performance Results Act measures. Second, data from all three sources are necessary to determine if scholars comply with the service obligation requirements. And finally, project-specific performance data are collected from grantees for project monitoring and program improvement. The forms in this package are updates to existing Office of Management and Budget approved forms (1820-0686) which expire on 8/31/2020.

Miscellaneous Actions
Short Statement:
Total responses were decreased by 261 responses due to an adjustment in the agency’s estimate. Previously, grantee responses were reported in aggregate, listing only one response per information collection instrument, rather than listing the true number of responses. Burden hours were reduced by 2,023 hours due the adjustment in agency estimate of respondents, particularly the number of active scholars. The burden hours were reduced by 962 hours due to the program office's improved collection instructions and consolidation of data collection options. These changes will improve the accuracy of data collected, reduce burden required per respondent, and improve data use for program office staff and the general public.
