                        *Need and Use of Information Collection:*
                         The program review of the Division of AIDS (DAIDS) Implementation Program DPIP), is to be conducted over a three-year period, and it will provide feedback to aid in the understanding of the target population's knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of the DAIDS Policy Implementation Program (DPIP). The target population is classified as Extramural Researchers (ERs), who are recipients of funding from DAIDS to conduct and review research. This target population is comprised of Site Leaders of Clinical Research Sites (CRSs) and Research Networks and Clinical Site Monitors of the CTUs and CRSs. The researchers are located globally, and may be part of more than one DAIDS funded research study and/or network. The DPIP is built upon four goals of awareness and accessibility, understandability, applicability, and harmonization of the policies and procedures. The review is to determine DPIP's progression to fulfillment of its program goals. The results of the review will provide DAIDS' Policy, Training, and Quality Assurance Branch (PTQAB) with information to guide optimal deployment of clinical research policies and procedures intended to harmonize, standardize and improve DAIDS funded/sponsored research. The program review will help derive an understanding of whether the DPIP program is implemented and functioning as intended to meet its program goals. The
