SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: National Language Service
Corps (NLSC); DD Form 2932, DD Form 2933, DD Form 2934; OMB Control
Number 0704-0449.
Needs and Uses: The NLSC recruits from the public and enrolls
individuals who would like to volunteer their language skills. The NLSC
identifies U.S. citizens who can provide high levels of proficiency in
foreign languages and cultural expertise critical to national security
for short-term temporary assignments when other resources are not
available. The NLSC will fill gaps between requirements of DoD or other
departments or agencies of the United States and available language
skills where Government employees are required or desired. The NLSC
will reach out to U.S. citizens (age 18 or over) who can read, listen,
speak, and write in English and read, listen, write, and speak at least
one other specified language, generally at or above skill level 3 as
described by the proficiency guidelines of the Federal Interagency
Language Roundtable (ILR). The DoD and the Intelligence Community
agencies use these guidelines as the basis for language skill
requirements identification, position descriptions, readiness indices
and language bonus pay systems. Therefore, the ILR proficiency
guidelines represent a common metric used by USG agencies as a basis
for policy, planning and human capital decisions in operational,
mission critical areas where language is required.
Affected Public: Individuals or households.
Annual Burden Hours: 1,020.
Number of Respondents: 1,700.
Responses per Respondent: 3.
Annual Responses: 5,100.
