Needs and Uses: The DoD SECO Program is the primary source of
education, career and employment counseling for all military spouses
who are seeking post-secondary education, training, licenses and
credentials needed for portable career employment. The SECO system
delivers the resources and tools necessary to assist spouses of service
members with career exploration/discovery, career education and
training, employment readiness, and career connections at any point
within the spouse career lifecycle. It is imperative that the DoD
collect data to ensure that the SECO program is meeting its overarching
goal of increasing employment opportunities for military spouses. The
DoD requires the information in the proposed collection for program
planning and management purposes. Collected information will ensure
that the SECO program will be able to collect relevant metrics and make
determinations of program viability and improvement. Additionally, the
data collected is utilized to build a spouse profile that allows
information to be saved over time and to prepopulate information into
tools such as resume builders and career and education planning
resources.
Affected Public: Individuals or households.
Frequency: On Occasion.
Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
DOD Clearance Officer: Mr. Reginald Lucas.
