In administering training courses at the NTSB Training Center in accordance with the NTSB's authorizing legislation, the NTSB seeks to maintain a standard of excellence. The NTSB's goal of providing materials, instructors, methods of instruction, and facility arrangements that are satisfactory will require the NTSB to obtain feedback on the training courses from attendees. Generic approval for all Training Center course evaluation forms will allow the NTSB to better obtain feedback from all attendees of courses. The NTSB will utilize this feedback to ensure it is fulfilling its objectives for each course.
This ICR is the first time the NTSB is requesting approval to receive a generic clearance for all NTSB Training Center course evaluation forms. This request for generic approval is not related to a regulatory or program change. Please see supporting statements for more information.
