This request is for a reinstatement
without change for the participant tracking system for the Youth
CareerConnect (YCC) Grants. In applying for the YCC grant program,
grantees agreed to submit participant-level data and quarterly
aggregate reports for individuals who receive services through YCC
programs and their partnerships with entities administering the
workforce investment system as established under Section 1169(b)
and 117 of the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 (WIA), Local
Education Agencies (LEA's), non-profit organizations with program
model experience, education and training providers such as
community colleges and other institutions of higher education and
employer partners. The reports will include aggregate data on
demographic characteristics, types of services received,
placements, program outcomes, and follow-up status. Specifically,
they will summarize data on participants who received core YCC
program services, program enrollment, retention and credential
rates, placement services, and other services essential to
successful outcomes for YCC program participants. This ICR seeks
approval for a reinstatement of 1291-0002 for the information
collection to meet the reporting and record keeping requirements of
the YCC grant program.
