accurate; (4) how might the Department enhance the quality, utility, 
and clarity of the information to be collected; and (5) how might the

including through the use of information technology. Please note that 
written comments received in response to this notice will be considered 
public records.

    Abstract: This data collection serves three purposes for the Office 
of Special Education Program's Personnel Development Program (PD). 
First, data from three sources (grantees, scholars, and employers) are 
necessary to assess the performance of the PDP on its Government 
Performance Results Act (GPRA) 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 PDP grantees for project monitoring and program 
improvement.
