SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks approval under the PRA for 
revisions to the Post Enrollment Data Collection for Job Corps 
Participants information collection. These data will be used to assess 
the effectiveness of the Job Corps program in meeting its objectives 
under the Workforce Innovation Opportunity Act (WIOA). The Office of 
Job Corps will incorporate these data into the Outcome Measurement 
System to evaluate the post-center outcomes of graduates and former 
enrollees. Job Corps will use the information about student outcomes 
and customer feedback about satisfaction with specific services to 
develop or refine policies to improve the delivery of educational and 
job training services to at-risk youth. The Workforce Innovation 
Opportunity Act (WIOA), Section 116(b)(2)(A)(i) and Section 159(c)(4) 
authorizes this information collection.
    This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency 
generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and 
the public is generally not required to respond to an information 
collection, unless the OMB, under the PRA, approves it and displays a 
currently valid OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any 
other provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to 
penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information that 
does not display a valid Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 
1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB approval for this information collection 
under Control Number 1205-0426. The current approval is scheduled to 
expire on October 31, 2019 however, the DOL notes that existing 
information collection requirements submitted to the OMB will receive a 
month-to-month extension while they undergo review. New requirements 
would only take effect upon OMB approval. For additional substantive 
information about this ICR, see the related notice published in the 
Federal Register on July 03, 2019 (84 FR 31917).
    Interested parties are encouraged to send comments to the OMB, 
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs at the address shown in 
the ADDRESSES section within thirty-(30) days of publication of this 
notice in the Federal Register. In order to help ensure appropriate 
consideration, comments should mention OMB Control Number 1205-0426.
    The OMB is particularly interested in comments that:
     Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility.
     Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the 
burden of the proposed collection of information, including the 
validity of the methodology and assumptions used.
     Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and
     Minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate 
automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting 
electronic submission of responses.
