    Proposed Collection: Assessment of Oncology Nursing Education and 
Training in Low and Middle Income Countries, 0925-NEW, National Cancer 
Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health (NIH).
    Need and Use of Information Collection: This submission is a 
request for OMB to approve the Assessment of Oncology Nursing Education 
and Training in Low and Middle Income Countries (LMICs). NCI-Designated 
Cancer Centers have a range of international activities, some of which 
are funded by NCI, but many of which are not. These international 
activities may include oncology nursing education and training in 
LMICs, but the extent of these activities across cancer centers is 
unknown. The proposed assessment requests information about oncology 
nursing education and training projects including: descriptions of 
projects, partner organizations, types of activities, cost, and impact. 
The information will be collected annually. NCI's Center for Global 
Health (CGH) is in the process of developing its strategic plan for 
oncology nursing education in LMICs.

[[Page 10129]]

This information will help inform this strategic planning process and 
provide evidence to inform decisions on potential investments in grants 
for oncology nursing education in LMICs. Additionally, this information 
will be used in an online, interactive map that is being developed by 
CGH which will allow external organizations, such as cancer centers, to 
explore what projects are being done in which countries, which will 
facilitate collaborations and minimize duplication. The frequency of 
the data collection will be once per year although respondents may have 
more than one response if they have up to three projects.
    OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to 
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized 
burden hours are 51.
