Food and Nutrition Service
Title: Produce Safety University Nomination and Course Evaluation.
OMB Control Number: 0584-NEW.
Summary of Collection: The collection of information is necessary
for people to attend Produce Safety University (PSU), a training course
designed to help child nutrition professionals identify and manage food
safety risks associated with fresh produce. The PSU course is designed
to be a train-the trainer immersion course, where participants are
expected to conduct further training with their peers using the
information they obtain during PSU.
Need and Use of the Information: FNS will collect course nomination
from child nutrition professionals and State agency staff who wish to
attend PSU. State agencies may nominate individuals to attend PSU and
receive annual logistic information through a letter from FNS. The
letter to States includes a link to theonlinecourse nomination.
Toensure that PSU provides the most appropriate training content that
is tailored to the audience, it is necessary to know the occupational
make-up of each training co-hort. Therefore, job titles and the name of
the organization nominees represent will be collected.Collecting this
information on the course nomination will ensure that the Office of
Food Safety offers this training opportunity equally among each of the
States and seven FNS Regions. Contact information is needed from
participants to support their learning experience; when PSU training
sessions are held virtually, physical course materials are shipped to
each participant. These materials include
[[Page 2317]]
slides, activities, and supplemental print resources, making address
collection necessary.
Program evaluation: The program evaluation instruments are each
designed to collect specific information from respondents at specific
times.
1. The Welcome Questions are given to confirm PSU participants to
assess where the training cohort lies in terms of knowledge and
experience, which allows for the training team to make minor changes
based on the foundational knowledge a group may have.
2. The Course Evaluation involves questions following each session
of PSU to assess if the session achieved its objective, and whether or
not the time allotted was sufficient. The Course Evaluation also
addresses how effective the training team and resources were in helping
PSU participants grasp all information taught in the course. This
information is crucial to ensure PSU is satisfying participants'
expectations and supporting.
Description of Respondents: State, Local, and Tribal governments.
Respondent groups identified include: (1) Child Nutrition program
operators and (2) State agency staff.
Number of Respondents: 285.
Frequency of Responses: Reporting: On occasion.
