specific strategy for implementation of the single identifier. (2)
In the next submission for clearance, ED will make every possible
effort to implement IPEDS through a web-based collection. ED will

IPEDS is a system of surveys designed
to collect basic data from approximately 10,000 postsecondary
institutions in the United States. The IPEDS provides information
on numbers of students enrolled, degrees completed, other awards
earned, dollars expended, and staff employed at postsecondary
institutions. The amendments to the Higher Education Act of 1988,
part C, section 131, require NCES to provide cost and pricing
information from postsecondary institutions. As a consequence, in
1999, the IPEDS is proposing piloting a web-based data collection
for this information in addition to the paper forms previously
cleared.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
