SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DOL, as 

part of continuing efforts to reduce 

paperwork and respondent burden, 

conducts a pre-clearance consultation 

program to provide the general public 

and Federal agencies an opportunity to 

comment on proposed and/or 

continuing collections of information 

before submitting them to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for final 

approval. This program helps to ensure 

requested data can be provided in the 

desired format, reporting burden (time 

and financial resources) is minimized, 

collection instruments are clearly 

understood, and the impact of collection 

requirements can be properly assessed. 

Section 116 of WIOA (29 U.S.C. 3141) 

authorizes this information collection. 

This information collection requires 

States and Local Areas that operate the 

six core programs of the workforce 

development system to comply with 

common performance accountability 

requirements for those programs, which 

are: the Adult, Dislocated Worker, and 

Youth programs (title I, administered by 

DOL); the Wagner-Peyser Act program 

(title III, administered by DOL); the 

Adult Education and Family Literacy 

Act (AEFLA) program (title II, 

administered by ED); and the Vocational 

Rehabilitation (VR) program (title IV, 

administered by ED). As such, States 

and Local Areas that operate core 

programs must submit common 

performance data to demonstrate that 

specified performance levels are 

achieved. States and Local Areas will 

report the common performance data 

through this ICR. 

In addition, and in accordance with 

WIOA section 122(b)(2), training 

providers that are eligible to receive 

funds from Adult and Dislocated 

Worker programs authorized under title 

I of WIOA (also known as ‘‘eligible 

training providers’’ or ETPs) must report 

data on outcomes achieved under those 

programs to the State(s) in which they 

are listed on the State ETP list. States 

then report the information submitted 

by ETPs to DOL. The information 

collection requirements applicable to 

ETPs are contained in this ICR. 

Section 116(d)(1) of WIOA mandates 

that the Secretaries of Labor and 

Education develop a template for 

performance reports to be used by 

States, local boards, and ETPs for 

reporting on outcomes achieved by 

participants in the six core programs. 

Corresponding joint regulations for 

these data collection requirements, 

including which primary performance 

indicators apply for each core program, 

have been issued by the Departments. 

See 81 FR 55792 (Aug. 19, 2016). The 

final regulations became effective on 

October 18, 2016. These joint 

performance regulations can be found 

at: (1) 20 CFR part 677 (which covers 

the Adult and Dislocated Worker 

programs (20 CFR part 680), the Youth 

program (20 CFR part 681), and the 

Wagner-Peyser Act program (20 CFR 

part 652)); (2) 34 CFR part 463, subpart 

I (which covers the AEFLA program); 

and (3) 34 CFR part 361, subpart E 

(which covers the VR program). 

The data collection instruments 

covered in this ICR, are necessary to 

meet the requirements of section 116 of 

WIOA. These information collection 

instruments were developed jointly by 

the Departments, and include: (1) the 

Joint Participant Individual Record 

Layout (PIRL), which provides a 

standardized set of data elements, 

definitions, and reporting instructions 

for use by States and local entities 

administering WIOA core programs 

(ETA–9170); (2) the Statewide 

Performance Report Template, to be 

used for the reporting of data by State 

entities that administer WIOA core 

programs (ETA–9169); (3) the Local 

Area Performance Report Template, to 

be used for the reporting of data by local 

entities that administer WIOA core 

programs (ETA–9169); (4) the ETP 

Performance Report specifications and 

definitions, to be used for the reporting
