Summary
The Department of Labor is asking for public feedback on how it collects follow-up information from Job Corps participants after they enroll. This update helps make sure the data meets new rules from a 2014 law and keeps track of how well Job Corps is doing. Comments are open until February 2, 2026, and this process doesn’t add extra costs but helps improve program tracking.

State/Local/Tribal Reporting Burden
State, local, and tribal governments are the affected public for the Department of Labor's Post Enrollment Data Collection (OMB Control Number 1205-0426). DOL estimates 52,679 respondents and responses, a total annual time burden of 9,484 hours, and $0 in annual other costs; DOL seeks OMB authorization for this collection for three years.
Continued WIOA Outcome Reporting

The Office of Job Corps revised its Post Enrollment Data Collection system in 2019 and primarily collects required information through survey instruments to help identify high-performing and low-performing centers.
