SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Chief Evaluation Office (CEO) of the 
U.S. DOL seeks approval to collect information for the implementation, 
outcome, and impact feasibility studies of two Job Corps demonstration 
pilots. The Job Scholars pilot has 30 separate grantees. The Idaho Job 
Corps pilot has one grantee, which operates four locations. These 
studies, funded as part of the broader Job Corps Evidence-Building 
Portfolio Program, aim to understand who the pilots enroll, what 
services they provide, how these services are implemented, and how the 
pilots compare with traditional Job Corps centers. The evaluation will 
also assess outcomes of participants in the demonstration pilots, as 
well as identify any best practices. The project also includes impact 
feasibility assessments of each of the pilots to assess the potential 
for conducting an impact evaluation of the pilot's effectiveness or 
similar future pilots. For additional substantive information about 
this ICR,

of law, no person shall generally be subject to penalty for failing to 
comply with a collection of information that does not display a valid 
OMB Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6.
