    Title of Collection: Transition and Postsecondary Programs for 
Students with Intellectual Disabilities (TPSID) Evaluation Protocol.
    OMB Control Number: 1840-0825.
    Type of Review: A revision of a currently approved ICR.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Private Sector.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 40.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 788.
    Abstract: In October 2020, the Institute for Community Inclusion 
(ICI), UMass Boston received a five-year cooperative agreement from the 
Office of Postsecondary Education to serve as the National Coordinating 
Center (NCC) for colleges and universities implementing inclusive 
higher education programs for students with intellectual disabilities, 
including 22 model demonstration projects aimed at creating inclusive 
comprehensive transition and postsecondary programs for students with 
intellectual disabilities known as Transition and Postsecondary 
Programs for Students with Intellectual Disabilities (TPSIDs).
    To reduce respondent burden, the NCC has streamlined and simplified 
the previously approved evaluation system for the TPSID programs. The 
NCC will enhance the collection and analyses of longitudinal follow-up 
data from the 22 TPSID model programs via an already developed and 
previously OMB approved evaluation system for the TPSID programs. The 
revised data collection system is part of an evaluation effort. The 
system will collect program data at the institutions from TPSID program 
staff via an online, secure data management system.

Ross Santy,
Chief Data Officer, Office of Planning, Evaluation and Policy 
Development.
