# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The National Fire Academy is mandated under the Fire Prevention and Control Act of 1974 (Pub. L. 93-498) to provide training and education to the Nation's fire service and emergency service personnel. The state of-the-art programs offered by the National Fire Academy serve as models of excellence and State and local fire service agencies rely heavily on the curriculum to train their personnel. To maintain the quality of these training programs, it is critical that courses be evaluated after students have had the opportunity to apply the knowledge and skills gained from their training. Information collected from the evaluation forms enables the U.S. Fire Administration and National Fire Academy staff to monitor and recommend changes in course materials, individual subject selection criteria, and to make curriculum-wide reviews and assessments.

                    This proposed information collection previously published in the                     **Federal Register**                     on July 22, 2024, at 89 FR 59128 with a 60-day public comment period. FEMA received zero public comments. The purpose of this notice is to notify the public that FEMA will submit the information collection abstracted below to the Office of Management and Budget for review and clearance.
