FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Amber Sanford, Office of Operations, Food and Drug Administration, Three White Flint North, 10A-12M, 11601 Landsdown St., North Bethesda, MD 20852, 301-796-8867, PRAStaff@fda.hhs.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance.
Application for Participation in FDA Fellowship and Traineeship Programs
OMB Control Number 0910-0780-Revision
Sections 1104, 1302, 3301, 3304, 3320, 3361, 3393, and 3394 of Title 5 of the United States Code authorize Federal Agencies to rate applicants for Federal jobs. The proposed information collection involves brief online applications completed by applicants applying to FDA's Fellowship and Traineeship programs. These voluntary online applications will allow the Agency to easily and efficiently elicit and review information from students and healthcare professionals who are interested in becoming involved in FDA-wide activities. The process will reduce the time and cost of submitting written documentation to the Agency and lessen the likelihood of applications being misrouted within the Agency mail system. It will assist the Agency in promoting and protecting the public health by encouraging outside persons to share their expertise with FDA.
In the Federal Register of October 19, 2018 (83 FR 53065), FDA published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed collection of information. Although one comment was received, it was not responsive to the four collection of information topics solicited and therefore will not be discussed in this document.
FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows:
| Activity | Number of respondents | Number of responses per respondent | Total annual responses | Average burden per response | Total hours |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Medical Device Fellowship Program | 250 | 1 | 250 | 1 | 250 |
| FDA Traineeship Program | 1,000 | 1 | 1,000 | 1 | 1,000 |
| Reagan-Udall Fellowship at FDA | 50 | 1 | 50 | 1 | 50 |
| Total | 1,300 | ||||
| 1 ?There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. | |||||

Because FDA is developing two new training programs, Trainee Program and Reagan-Udall Fellowship, our estimated burden for the information collection reflects an overall increase of 2 hours. FDA has removed the Commissioner's Fellowship Program and Regulatory Science Internship Program from this information collection as these programs have been discontinued.
FDA published a 30-day notice for this information collection on February 3, 2020 (85 FR 5966). FDA is reopening the 30-day comment period in order to satisfy PRA requirements. No changes have been made to the information collection.
Dated: December 14, 2020.
Lauren K. Roth,
Acting Principal Associate Commissioner for Policy.
