Title of Collection: Transition and 

Postsecondary Programs for Students 

with Intellectual Disabilities (TPSID) 

Evaluation Protocol. 

OMB Control Number: 1840–0825. 

Type of Review: A reinstatement of a 

previously approved information 

collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: Private 

Sector. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 48. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 1,096. 

Abstract: In October 2015, the 

Institute for Community Inclusion (ICI), 

UMass Boston received a five-year 

cooperative agreement from the Office 

of Postsecondary Education to serve as 

the National Coordinating Center (NCC) 

for colleges and universities 

implementing inclusive higher 

education programs for students with 

intellectual disabilities, including 25 

newly-funded model demonstration 

projects aimed at creating inclusive 

comprehensive transition and 

postsecondary programs for students 

with intellectual disabilities known as 

Transition and Postsecondary Programs 

for Students with Intellectual 

Disabilities (TPSIDs). 

To reduce respondent burden, the 

NCC has streamlined and simplified the 

previously approved evaluation system 

for the TPSID programs. The NCC will 

enhance the collection and analyses of 

longitudinal follow up data from the 

new 25 TPSID model programs via an 

already developed and previously OMB 

approved evaluation system for the 

TPSID programs. The revised data 

collection system is part of an 

evaluation effort. The system will 

collect program data at the institutions 

from TPSID program staff via an online, 

secure data management system.
