TITLE
OF INFORMATION COLLECTION: Standard Feedback Survey for the
National Center for Health, Behavioral Health, and Safety’s
Training and Technical Assistance Offerings
PURPOSE:
The proposed information collection will be administered to participants of national, regional, and grantee training and technical assistance (TTA) offerings provided by the Office of Head Start’s National Center for Health, Behavioral Health, and Safety (NCHBHS). This satisfaction survey will provide timely feedback from participants in an efficient manner to improve future programming. This is the sole source of systematically collected satisfaction data from participants of the TTA offerings. This satisfaction survey asks respondents for basic demographic information and gauges their level of satisfaction with TTA, related gains in knowledge, and whether they will apply what they learned in their work for Head Start. Demographic information is important to ensure TTA offerings are useful, meaningful, and respectful for everyone. If it is not useful for a particular demographic group, then the information could be use to improve TTA in the future, so it is more responsive to the group’s needs. Responses to this survey will be used to determine the success of TTA offerings and to inform continuous quality improvement of future TTA efforts.
We are submitting this survey for approval with changes primarily to better gather feedback about how well the Center’s TTA offerings address children facing adversities, the birth to five continuum, and social determinants of health. Additionally, the roles have been collapsed to fewer categories for reduced burden. A few minor clarifications and edits were made to improve the feedback survey.
The burden for the survey remains the same since the new questions do not add a significant amount of time to respond to the survey beyond the existing estimated average 5 minutes since many respondents will only receive a subset of questions depending on the event they attend including any new items. Additionally, respondents will take much less time in reviewing all the roles for the revised question which collapsed multiple reporting categories.
DESCRIPTION OF RESPONDENTS: This satisfaction survey will be administered to people attending NCHBHS TTA offerings at the national, regional, and grantee level. This will include non-federal staff, Head Start/Early Head Start staff, state agency staff, program managers, health care providers, and consultants working with Head Start/Early Head Start programs.
