SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA of 1995, Federal agencies must 
obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for each 
collection of information they conduct or sponsor. This request for 
comment is being made pursuant to Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA. 
With respect to the following collection of information, VBA invites 
comments on: (1) whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of VBA's functions, including 
whether the information will have practical utility; (2) the accuracy 
of VBA's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of 
information; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of 
the information to be collected; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of 
the collection of information on respondents, including through the use 
of automated collection techniques or the use of other forms of 
information technology.
    Authority: Title 38 U.S.C. 3675; 3676; 38 CFR Sections 21.4253 and 
21.4254.
    Title: Submission of School Catalog to the State Approving Agency.
    OMB Control Number: 2900-0568.
    Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Abstract: State Approving Agencies and VA use the catalogs to 
determine what courses can be approved for VA training. VA receives 
catalogs when institutions change their education programs, tuition and 
fees and calendars, etc. In general, the catalogs are collected twice a 
year. Without the catalogs, VA and SAAs cannot determine what courses 
could be approved. There was a decrease in burden during this renewal 
period because, unlike for the previous submission, we now take the 
annual average number of catalogs received during periods 2019, 2020 
and 2021, rather than the actual grand total of the number of catalogs 
received for those periods.
    Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
    Estimated Annual Burden: 891 hours.
    Estimated Average Burden Time per Respondent: 15 minutes.
    Frequency of Response: Twice Annually.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 3,567.

    By direction of the Secretary:
Maribel Aponte,
VA PRA Clearance Officer, Office of Enterprise and Integration/Data 
Governance Analytics, Department of Veterans Affairs.
