Shape1 TITLE OF INFORMATION COLLECTION: CDSE Training Application Survey

PURPOSE: The Defense Security Service (DSS) Center for Development of Security Excellence (CDSE) is required to evaluate education and training activities. The information collected is used for the purpose of assessing and improving the availability, effectiveness, and usability of training and education services and products made available to employees of the Department of Defense, employees of participants in the National Industrial Security Program (NISP), employees of other Federal Departments and State, and Local Governments, and other users. This survey is sent to students approximately 3-6 months following completion of a significant training milestone. No personally identifiable information is requested and anonymity of responses is maintained. Responses are aggregated for reports that are reviewed by CDSE instructors, course developers, and management.

DESCRIPTION OF RESPONDENTS: The respondents to the information collection are personnel who have registered for and completed courses or learning events provided by the DSS CDSE. These surveys are sent to the population of students who completed a subset of courses within a specific time range. Most of the respondents include Federal Government civilian employees, or employees of contractors that participate in the NISP. A small percentage of potential respondents includes employees of state and local governments, educational institutions, or employees of foreign governments. Respondents participate because the CDSE has asked for their input on applying what they learned in order to assess the effectiveness of training in contributing to mission accomplishment and meeting organizational goals.
