departments and agencies to improve 

the effectiveness of programs by 

engaging in strategic planning, setting 

outcome-related goals for programs, and 

measuring program results against those 

goals. 

The goal of the Rehabilitation ShortTerm Training Program is to upgrade 

the knowledge and skills of staff 

currently employed by CAPs, to educate 

CAP staff on new program 

developments, and to develop staff 

skills in strategic and operational 

planning and direction of CAP services, 

which will ultimately lead to increased 

responsiveness of the vocational 

rehabilitation system in order to better 

assist individuals with disabilities in 

obtaining competitive employment. In 

order to measure the success of the 

grantee in meeting this goal, the CAP 

training grantee is required to conduct 

an evaluation of the training activities 

provided. 

The performance measures for this 

project are: 

• The percentage of CAP personnel 

with zero to five years of experience 

who reported increased or enhanced 

knowledge, skills, or abilities as a result 

of training; 

• The percentage of CAP personnel 

with five to ten years of experience who 

reported increased or enhanced 

knowledge, skills, or abilities as a result 

of training; 

• The percentage of CAP personnel 

with ten or more years of experience 

who reported increased or enhanced 

knowledge, skills, or abilities as a result 

of training; 

• The percentage of CAP personnel 

who reported that the training provided 

was of sufficient quality, relevance, and 

demonstrated usefulness to their work; 

• The percentage of CAP personnel 

who reported that the quality of 

technical assistance, including materials 

provided, were of sufficient quality, 

relevance, and demonstrated usefulness 

to their work; and 

• The percentage of CAP personnel 

who reported that the technical 

assistance received adequately 

addressed their needs. 

5. Continuation Awards: In making a 

continuation award under 34 CFR 

75.253, the Secretary considers, among 

other things: Whether a grantee has 

made substantial progress in achieving 

the goals and objectives of the project; 

whether the grantee has expended funds 

in a manner that is consistent with its 

approved application and budget; and, 

if the Secretary has established 

performance measurement 

requirements, the performance targets in 

the grantee’s approved application. In 

making a continuation grant, the 

Secretary also considers whether the 

grantee is operating in compliance with 

the assurances in its approved 

application, including those applicable 

to Federal civil rights laws that prohibit 

discrimination in programs or activities 

receiving Federal financial assistance 

from the Department (34 CFR 100.4, 

104.5, 106.4, 108.8, and 110.23).

Records Governing Off-the-Record 

Communications; Public Notice 

This constitutes notice, in accordance 

with 18 CFR 385.2201(b), of the receipt 

of prohibited and exempt off-the-record 

communications. 

Order No. 607 (64 FR 51222, 

September 22, 1999) requires 

Commission decisional employees, who 

make or receive a prohibited or exempt 

off-the-record communication relevant 

to the merits of a contested proceeding, 

to deliver to the Secretary of the 

Commission, a copy of the 

communication, if written, or a 

summary of the substance of any oral 

communication. 

Prohibited communications are 

included in a public, non-decisional file 

associated with, but not a part of, the 

decisional record of the proceeding. 

Unless the Commission determines that 

the prohibited communication and any 

responses thereto should become a part 

of the decisional record, the prohibited 

off-the-record communication will not 

be considered by the Commission in 

reaching its decision. Parties to a 

proceeding may seek the opportunity to 

respond to any facts or contentions 

made in a prohibited off-the-record 

communication, and may request that 

the Commission place the prohibited 

communication and responses thereto 

in the decisional record. The 

Commission will grant such a request 

only when it determines that fairness so 

requires. Any person identified below as 

having made a prohibited off-the-record 

communication shall serve the 

document on all parties listed on the 

official service list for the applicable 

proceeding in accordance with Rule 

2010, 18 CFR 385.2010. 

Exempt off-the-record 

communications are included in the 

decisional record of the proceeding, 

unless the communication was with a 

cooperating agency as described by 40 

CFR 1501.6, made under 18 CFR 

385.2201(e)(1)(v). 

The following is a list of off-therecord communications recently 

received by the Secretary of the
