OIRA Conclusion Action: Approved without change	Conclusion Date: 04/09/1996
	Date Received in OIRA: 02/09/1996
Terms of Clearance: This collection is approved as amended by ED's resubmission of a revised draft dated 1/3/96 and by its revisions of 3/21/96 and 4/5/96. OMB approves this request in its present form, for the purpose of describing the progress of School to Work implementation in 8 States and collecting baseline information on students; in its present form, this study does not constitute a national evaluation. This request is the first component of a multi-pronged evaluation strategy that, in sum, will produce the national evaluation required by the School-to-Work legislation. To achieve the objective of the statute, ED, DOL, and the School- To-Work Office shall develop and implement net impact evaluation designs to assess the effects of key components of the School-To- Work system such as worked-based learning, integration of academic and vocational curricula, connecting activity components, etc. ED, DOL, and the School-To-Work Office will submit a plan with a schedule to conduct these activities as soon as possible, but no later than the submission of the local partnerships survey. Last, we recommend that ED, DOL and the School-To-Work Office compare data from this survey with similar data from the NLSY to provide a national comparative baseline.
