Abstract: As part of its mission, EEOC is committed to providing a program of education to keep the public informed of the latest developments in equal employment opportunity law. These training and technical assistance seminars are vital to eliminating unlawful discrimination in the workplace, and to ensure that the program is effective, EEOC needs feedback from participants. This generic clearance covers various customer feedback surveys EEOC will use in connection with training and other interactions with stakeholders and the public. The surveys are intended to help the agency gauge the efficacy of the training programs.
