Abstract: The existing information collection proposed for revision allows on-going assessment of the eligibility and qualifications of candidates applying for participation in clinical research training programs provided by the Office of Clinical Research Training and Medical Education located in the NIH Clinical Center (CC) over a ten-year follow-up period. The information received from respondents is evaluated by training program directors for the purpose of selecting qualified and competent participants in these resource-limited training programs operating within the Intramural Research Program (IRP) of the National Institutes of Health, and the NIH Clinical Center, located in Bethesda, Maryland. The information collected is also required to validate the compliance of graduate medical education training programs sponsored by the CC with the requirements of external accrediting organizations, specifically the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education located in Chicago, IL. Applicant data are also used to assess the effectiveness of efforts to inform the applicant pool and the public about clinical research training within the IRP.
