Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: No changes to the burden worksheet were made. There were changes made to the survey script. Updates were made to the response categories of specific questions to include more options for students. The additional response categories allow Job Corps to collect more accurate information from students about their experiences or improve the skip-logic of the survey programming. In addition, questions were added or refined within the script to collect more accurate information from students and ensure the survey meets the needs of all students including adding a question to adjust the skip-logic of the survey programming for students in distance learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The prior burden statement estimated that students would require .33 of an hour to complete the survey; however, data from survey showed that this was not required. For example, in the last administration, students who completed the survey did so in, on average, .26 of an hour. Therefore, the estimated burden of the additional 16 questions, including one that intended to reduce the burden by skipping questions unrelated to the student, is not estimated to increase the burden. None of the changes to the survey script require adjustments to the estimated time to complete the survey or the burden worksheet.
