    Title of the Collection: OMH Think Cultural Health.
    Type of Collection: Reinstatement without Change of a Previously 
Approved Collection.
    OMB No.: 0990-0407.
    Abstract: The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Office 
of Minority Health (OMH) is requesting approval by OMB on a 
reinstatement without change of a previously approved collection of 
information. The Think Cultural Health (TCH) website is an initiative 
of HHS OMH that provides resources and tools to promote cultural and 
linguistic competency in health and health care. The TCH website offers 
a suite of e-learning programs that afford health and health care 
professionals the ability to earn continuing education credits through 
training in cultural and linguistic competency.
    Need and Proposed Use of the Information: The data will be used to 
enable health and health care professionals to register for courses, 
obtain accredited continuing education credits, and help ensure that 
TCH offerings remain relevant, useful, and responsive to the needs of 
their target audiences. The findings from the data collection will be 
of interest to HHS's OMH in supporting maintenance and revisions of the 
offerings on the TCH website.
    Likely Respondents: Likely respondents are users of the TCH e-
learning program(s) and/or e-resource(s). There are no requirements for 
annual, quarterly or monthly responses. A single respondent completes 
the registration process to access an e-learning program or e-resource 
on the website only one time and completes a course-specific evaluation 
form for each e-learning program course/unit or e-resource per 
completion. A respondent may be invited to participate in the follow-up 
survey, a focus group, or a key informant interview and will not be 
asked to participate in more than one follow-up activity (i.e., survey, 
focus group, or key informant interview).

    Total..........................  .....................         249,940  ..............  ...........   12,580
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    HHS OMH estimates the total annual burden for this collection of 
information is 12,580 hours. The estimated burden for the information 
collection reflects an overall annual increase of 10,576 hours. We 
attribute this adjustment to an increase in the number of respondents 
utilizing the TCH e-learning program(s) and/or e-resource(s).

Paperwork Reduction Act Reports Clearance Officer, Office of the
