Abstract: This is a revision request that seeks renewal of clearance for collecting career-related data for trainees funded or co-funded by the Fogarty International Center (FIC), National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), National Institute of General Medical Science (NIGMS), National Library of Medicine (NLM) and National Cancer Institute (NCI). The data collection system provides a streamlined, web-based application permitting principal investigators and their administrators to record career achievement progress by trainee on a voluntary basis. FIC, NIEHS, NIGMS, NLM and NCI Program Officers will use this data to monitor, evaluate and adjust grants to ensure desired outcomes are achieved, respond to congressional inquiries, and inform future strategic and management decisions regarding the grants program.

Short Statement: With increasing participation and success of CareerTrac, participation and burden have continued to increase. NIGMS is the NIH institute with the largest training programs. These three programs foster research training and the development of a strong and diverse biomedical research workforce through a variety of programs, mainly at the undergraduate, graduate levels. On average these programs appoint ten new trainees per year and track them for fifteen years. Another change to the number of respondents but having smaller effect on the burden hours and cost is the addition of a write-only Trainee Interface that will utilize existing in-training and accomplishment data collection fields (see Attachment 7).
