Title: Produce Safety University 

Nomination and Course Evaluation. 

Form Number: None. 

OMB Number: 0584–NEW. 

Expiration Date: To be determined. 

Type of Request: New collection. 

Abstract: Produce Safety University 

(PSU) is a training course designed to 

help child nutrition professionals 

identify and manage food safety risks 

associated with fresh produce. The PSU 

course is designed to be a train-thetrainer immersion course, where 

participants are expected to conduct 

further training with their peers using 

the information they obtain during PSU. 

The PSU curriculum covers all aspects 

of the fresh produce procurement chain, 

from growing and harvesting to storage 

and preparation through a combination 

of lecture, laboratory, and field-trip 

instruction. PSU was not held in 2020 

due to the COVID–19 pandemic; during 

2021 PSU transitioned to a virtual 

course, which included pre-recorded 

field-trip and laboratory components 

that participants were able to view these 

aspects virtually, while maintaining the 

full experience of PSU. Looking 

forward, PSU will likely continue 

through a hybrid approach, with both 

in-person sessions and virtual sessions 

offered annually. 

The purpose of the proposed 

collection of information is twofold. The 

first is to electronically collect course 

nomination from child nutrition 

professionals and State agency staff to 

attend Produce Safety University (PSU). 

State agencies may nominate 

individuals to attend PSU and receive 

annual logistic information through a 

letter from FNS. The letter to States 

includes a link to the online course 

nomination. While nomination is 

voluntary, if a participant wishes to 

attend Produce Safety University, 

completion of the course nomination is 

mandatory. To ensure that PSU provides 

the most appropriate training content 

that is tailored to the audience, it is 

necessary to know the occupational 

make-up of each training co-hort. 

Therefore, job titles and the name of the 

organization nominees represent will be 

collected. Collecting this information on 

the course nomination will ensure that 

the Office of Food Safety offers this 

training opportunity equally among 

each of the States and seven FNS 

Regions. Additional contact information 

is needed from participants to support 

their learning experience; when PSU 

training sessions are held virtually, 

physical course materials are shipped to 

each participant. These materials 

include slides, activities, and 

supplemental print resources, making 

address collection necessary. 

The second aspect of the proposed 

collection of information involves 

program evaluation. The program 

evaluation involves three instruments, 

each designed to collect specific 

information from respondents at 

specific times. The Welcome Questions 

are given to confirmed PSU participants 

to assess where the training cohort lies 

in terms of knowledge and experience, 

which allows for the training team to 

make minor changes based on the 

foundational knowledge a group may 

have. The Course Evaluation involves 

questions following each session of PSU 

to assess if the session achieved its 

objective, and whether or not the time 

allotted was sufficient. The Course 

Evaluation also addresses how effective 

the training team and resources were in 

helping PSU participants grasp all 

information taught in the course. This 

information is crucial to ensure PSU is 

satisfying participants’ expectations and 

supporting Child Nutrition program 

operators with accurate and helpful 

information. The Program Impact 

Evaluation is used to measure how the 

PSU courses have impacted participants 

six months after their completion of 

PSU. Since PSU is designed to be a 

train-the-trainer course, determining if 

graduates taught others on topics 

learned in PSU is essential to further the 

mission of the course. The Program 

Impact Evaluation is also used to inform 

resource development to support 

graduates in their efforts to train others 

on topics learned in PSU. 

The Nomination Form for Produce 

Safety University (FNS–909) is currently 

approved under OMB# 0584–0611 FNS 

Fast Track Clearance for the Collection 

of Routine Customer Feedback, which 

expires on September 30, 2022. This fast 

track clearance is meant for one-time 

collections of customer feedback on a 

variety of programs. Since the original 

submission, FNS has decided that this 

will be an ongoing collection, so we are 

now seeking approval for this under a 

new OMB control number. FNS has also 

made changes to the collection since the 

original submission. Under OMB# 

0584–0611, this collection has two 

instruments, the FNS–909 and a sample 

State Agency Letter, with a total of 218 

responses and 55 burden hours. FNS 


khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES
26340 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 86 / Wednesday, May 4, 2022 / Notices 

has made a number of changes as part 

of this new collection. These changes 

include the following: The FNS–909 is 

no longer the most appropriate 

instrument to collect the information 

from participants, and the new 

collection will not use the FNS–909. 

The proposed collection includes new 

questions outside of the FNS–909 scope. 

The new questions are necessary to 

determine nominee eligibility for 

training participation. We have also 

updated the course nomination from a 

paper to online format. 

Affected Public: State, Local, and 

Tribal governments. Respondent groups 

identified include: (1) Child Nutrition 

program operators and (2) State agency 

staff. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

The annual number of respondents is 

two-fold since those completing the 

course evaluations are a subset of those 

who completed the nomination form. 

The number of respondents to the State 

agency letter and nomination form is 

285. This includes: 155 child nutrition 

professionals and 130 State agency staff. 

Approximately half of the State agency 

staff read the letter but complete no 

further components of the collection. 

The course evaluations (welcome 

questions, course evaluations, and 

program impact evaluations) will be 

completed by a subset of respondents to 

the course nomination who were 

selected for participation in PSU. The 

total number of unique respondents for 

this collection is 285. 

Estimated Number of Responses per 

Respondent: Each respondent will be 

asked to complete the nomination 

information one time. Respondents are 

asked to complete all three program 

evaluation instruments, however, since 

participation is voluntary, few 

participants choose to respond to all 

three program evaluation components. 

Because of this, FNS estimates that the 

frequency for the requirements in this 

collection will mainly be 1, although it 

may range anywhere from 1 to 4, 

depending on how many of the optional 

evaluation instruments the respondent 

decides to complete. Overall, FNS 

estimates that the number of responses 

per respondents across the entire 

collection is 2.256. 

Estimated Total Annual Responses: 

643 total annual responses. Following 

the course nomination, respondents 

may choose to voluntarily respond to 

other instruments (Welcome Questions, 

Course Evaluation, and Program Impact 

Evaluation). Therefore, the total number 

of responses across all instruments does 

not equal the number of unique 

respondents (see estimated annual 

burden table below for response 

breakdown). 

Estimated Time per Response: The 

estimated time of response is 5 minutes 

(0.083 hours) for the State agency letter, 

15 minutes (0.25 hours) for the course 

nomination, 10 minutes (0.167 hours) 

for Welcome Questions, 15 minutes for 

Course Evaluation, and 20 minutes 

(0.334 hours) for Program Impact 

Evaluation as shown in the table below. 

This is an annual average time of 

approximately 13 minutes (0.214 hours) 

per respondent across all of the items in 

the collection. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden on 

Respondents: 138 hours. See the table 

below for estimated total annual burden 

for each type of respondent.
