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.

have found the trainingthey 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.

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

2 While 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.

3 Based on assumption of two trainers per organization selected.
