Type of Review: New Information
Collection.
Abstract: These VRRAP Surveys
submitted for OMB’s approval through
regular ICR 3-year collection for the
Collection of Qualitative Feedback on
Agency Service Delivery’’ is being
submitting based on the recently
enacted ‘‘Training in High-demand
Roles to Improve Veteran Employment
Act’’ (THRIVE ACT) legislation. This
new Public Law 117–16 amended the
Veteran Rapid Retraining Assistance
Program (VRRAP), Public Law 117–2
Section 8006 by requiring VA, in
coordination with Department of Labor
(DOL), to contact each Veteran who
completes a covered program of
education under the retraining
assistance program 30, 60, 90, and 180
days after the Veteran completes the
program of education to ask about their
experience in the retraining assistance
program and their employment status.
The Thrive Act legislation also
specifies that a Veteran participating in
a covered program of education solely
through distance learning on a half-time
basis or less would not receive a
housing stipend, and it clarifies the
housing stipend amount provided to a
Veteran when participating in a program
on a half-time basis or less. The Thrive
Act also requires VA, in consultation
with the DOL to contact each
participating Veteran no later than 30
days after the date the Veteran begins
the program of education, to notify them
of employment placement services
available upon completion of the
program; and to, no later than 14 days
after the date the Veteran completes, or
terminates participation in the program,
to facilitate the provision of
employment placement services to the
Veteran.
The Thrive Act also requires VA to
enter into a Memorandum of
Understanding with one or more
qualified nonprofit organizations to
facilitate the employment of Veterans
who participate in the retraining
assistance program. A qualified nonprofit organization is an organization
that is an association of businesses and
has at least two years of experience
providing job placement services for
Veterans. And finally, the legislation
requires DOL, no later than one year
after the date of the Thrive Act
enactment, to submit a report to the
Committees on Veterans’ Affairs of the
Senate and House of Representatives.
The report must contain the
percentage of Veterans who found
employment before the end of the
second calendar quarter after exiting the
program; the percentage of Veterans
who found employment before the end

of the fourth calendar quarter after
exiting the program; the median
earnings of Veterans for the second
quarter after exiting the program; and
the percentage of Veterans who attain a
recognized postsecondary credential
during the 12-month period after exiting
the program, and would require the
Comptroller General of the United
States to submit a report to Congress on
the outcomes and effectiveness of the
retraining program not later than 180
days after the termination of the
retraining assistance program, December
11, 2022. Feedback from the Surveys
will be used for that purpose.
The feedback will also provide
insights into the eligible beneficiaries’
perceptions, experiences and
expectations, provide an early warning
of issues with service, or focus attention
on areas where communication,
training, or changes in operations might
improve delivery of products or
services. This collection will allow for
ongoing, collaborative and actionable
communications between VA and
Veteran Rapid Retraining Assistance
Program (VRRAP) participants regarding
their needs for employment assistance.
It will also allow feedback to contribute
directly to the improvement of the
VRRAP program management.
Improving agency programs requires
ongoing assessment of service delivery,
by which we mean systematic review of
the operation of a program compared to
a set of explicit or implicit standards, as
a means of contributing to the
continuous improvement of the
program. VA will collect, analyze, and
interpret information gathered through
this regular ICR submission survey to
identify strengths and weaknesses of
current services and make
improvements in service delivery based
on feedback. The solicitation of
feedback will target areas such as:
Timeliness, appropriateness, accuracy
of information, courtesy, efficiency of
service delivery, and resolution of
issues with service delivery. Responses
will be assessed to plan and inform
efforts to improve or maintain the
quality of service offered to the public.
If this information is not collected, vital
feedback from customers and
stakeholders on VA’s services will be
unavailable.
The type of regular ICR survey
collection is limited only as:
• Web-Based or other forms of social
media and email.
Affected Public: Individuals and
households.
Estimated Annual Burden: 830 hours.
Estimated Average Burden per
Respondent: 2 minutes.

process will be complete by 2022.
Authority for Maintenance of the
System is being amended to include
Title 38 Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR) 17.2000(e).
The Purpose of the System is being
updated to include Title 38 CFR
17.2000(e), which requires that Vet
Center records be independent from VA

records and not be disclosed without
the eligible individual’s voluntarily
signed authorization or under the

VA may disclose records in this system

proceedings or has an interest in such
proceedings, and VA determines that
use of such records is relevant and
necessary to the proceedings.
Routine Use #5 has been updated by
clarifying the language to state, ‘‘VA
may disclose information that, either
alone or in conjunction with other
information, indicates a violation or
potential violation of law, whether civil,
