processing and maintaining information 

and disclosing and providing 

information; adjust the existing ways to

instructions and requirements; train 

personnel to be able to respond to a 

collection of information; and transmit

The numbers contained in this 

justification differ from those in the 60- 

day notice because of a revised estimate 

of the number of respondents.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Clearance for Program 

Evaluation of Financial Empowerment 

Training Programs. 

OMB Number: 3170–XXXX. 

Summary of Collection: The Bureau’s 

Office of Financial Empowerment 

(Empowerment) is responsible for 

developing strategies to improve the 

financial capability of low income and 

economically vulnerable consumers. 

The proposed collections will focus on 

evaluating (1) for recruitment purposes, 

the cohort of organization-based trainers 

that will pilot and perform the training; 

(2) the training practices and programs 

that are designed to enhance the ability 

of caseworkers to inform and educate 

low income consumers about managing 

their finances and strategies for making 

choices among available financial 

products and services available to them; 

(3) the evaluation tool that the trainers 

will use to determine the effectiveness 

of the training; and (4) the scope of 

workshop participants’ use of the 

training. The Bureau expects to collect 

qualitative data through in-person, 

telephone, or Internet based surveys. 

The information collected through 

qualitative evaluation methods will 

increase the Bureau’s understanding of 

what elements of training programs and 

practices can improve caseworker 

interaction with and assistance to their 

clients in ways that can improve 

outcomes for consumers, particularly 

low income. 

Type of Review: New Collection. 

Affected Public: Individuals, 

government social services entities, and 

not-for-profit institutions.

preliminary estimate of the aggregate 

burden hours for the evaluation training

Respondents 

Type Number Burden per Total burden 

• Extent to which they 

have found the training 

they received to be relevant to their work.

• Their comfort level discussing financial topics 

with clients, and how 

their comfort level 

changed after attending 

the training.

• Extent to which they believe the training they received has impacted their 

work, and how.

1Based on assumption that each trainer will hold workshops that train 50 case managers. 

2While similar information would be collected through the pilot trainer evaluation forms that the pilot trainers complete after holding each of 

their case manager trainings, we believe that focus group discussions might elicit additional insights from the pilot trainers, and would also allow 

for collection of more detailed information and participant suggestions. 3Based on assumption of two trainers per organization selected.
