This information collection, ETA 671, has two sections: the first records the sponsor's information and the second is for the apprentice's information, filled out by the sponsor based on employment records. The submission is reviewed and signed by the state agency/ Office of Apprenticeship. The information is collected on a one-time basis.

Short Statement: This ICR is being renewed without changes and has only been modified to account for adjustments in the number of programs, sponsors, and SAAs as well as in the costs associated with the burden estimates for this information collection. The number of responses has increased by 109,465 (from 957,452 to 1,066,917). The annual burden for this information collection increased from 521,964 to 522,623 hours resulting in an increase of 659 hours over ETA’s previous estimate, which OMB approved through June 30, 2024. The Department has lowered the burden hours for compliance with the affirmative action requirements due to the deployment of an Affirmative Action Builder Tool in RAPIDS that helps sponsors automate the required analysis.
