Reduction Act of 1995. To request more 

information on the proposed project or

plans and draft instruments, call the

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether 

the proposed collection of information 

is necessary for the proper performance 

of the functions of the agency, including 

whether the information shall have 

practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information; (c) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (d) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on respondents, utilizing automated 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology. 

Proposed Project: HRSA AIDS 

Education and Training Centers 

Evaluation Activities (OMB No. 0915– 

0281)—Revision 

The AIDS Education and Training 

Centers (AETC) Program, under the 

Ryan White Comprehensive AIDS 

Resources Emergency (CARE) Act, 

supports a network of regional and 

cross-cutting national centers that 

conduct targeted, multi-disciplinary 

education and training programs for 

health care providers treating persons 

with HIV/AIDS. The purpose of the 

AETCs is to increase the number of 

health care providers who are 

effectively educated and motivated to 

counsel, diagnose, treat, and medically 

manage individuals with HIV infection, 

and to help prevent high risk behaviors 

that lead to HIV transmission. 

As part of an ongoing evaluation effort 

of AETC activities, information is 

needed on AETC training sessions, 

consultations, and technical assistance 

activities. Each regional center collects 

forms on AETC training events, and 

centers are required to report aggregate 

data on their activities to HRSA and the 

HIV/AIDS Bureau (HAB). This data 

collection provides information on the 

number of training events, including 

clinical trainings and consultations, as 

well as technical assistance activities 

conducted by each regional center, the 

number of health care providers 

receiving professional training or 

consultation, and the time and effort 

expended on different levels of training 

and consultation activities. In addition, 

information is obtained on the 

populations served by the AETC 

trainees, and the increase in capacity 

achieved through training events. 

Collection of this information allows 

HRSA/HAB to provide information on 

training activities, types of education, 

and training provided to Ryan White 

CARE Act grantees, resource allocation, 

and capacity expansion. 

Trainees are asked to complete the 

Participant Information Form (PIF) for 

each activity they complete, and trainers 

are asked to complete the Event Record 

(ER). The estimated annual response 

burden to trainers as well as attendees 

of training programs is as follows:
