VI. Project Abstract/Summary (Provide justification by describing project’s purpose, objectives, funding conditions/intent, and
scope of Federal involvement):
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Division of STD Prevention (DSTDP) requests a 3-year renewal for to the
previously OMB approved information collection request (ICR) entitled, “National Network of Sexually Transmitted Disease Clinical
Prevention Training Centers (NNPTC): Evaluation”/ This revision consists of minor changes to the Abbreviated Health Professional
Application for Training HPAT form; now called the “NNPTC HPAT”.
Data will be collected from a total of 4,500 health professionals annually who provide STD screening, diagnosis, and treatment or provide
services to populations at risk of STD and receive training or technical assistance delivered by the NNPTC. In addition to completing the
NNPTC HPAT, these 4,500 healthcare professionals will receive an email (Att. 33 & 34) inviting them to complete an evaluation within
days after training, may voluntarily complete that evaluation, will receive an email inviting them to complete a follow-up evaluation 3
months after training, and may voluntarily complete that long-term evaluation. As a result, we anticipate 11,769 total respondent
instances.
This information collection is authorized by Section 301 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S. Code, Sec. 792[295k] (a)) (Att 1). This
information collection falls under the essential public health service of 1) informing, educating, and empowering people about health
issues; 2) mobilizing community partnerships to identify and solve health problems; 3) linking people to needed personal health services
and assure the provision of health care when otherwise unavailable; 4) assuring a competent public health and personal health care
workforce.
The only cost to the federal government would be the salary of CDC staff and contractors supporting the data collection activities and
associated tasks. There are no equipment or overhead costs.

VII. For determinations of “PRA Not Applicable” and “PRA Exemption/Exclusion Requested”, please provide a brief summary to
