ETA utilizes the data on ETA 9130 to
assess the effectiveness of ETA programs and to monitor and analyze
the financial activity of its grantees. Pre-designed software is
provided to the grantees to reflect the requirements of ETA Form
9130 so that the required data is reported directly into the
Enterprise Information Management System (EIMS) by the grant
recipients. This data collection format allows ETA to evaluate
program effectiveness and to monitor and analyze financial
activity, while complying with OMB efforts to streamline Federal
financial reporting. The focus of all ETA reporting has been to
provide ease and simplicity for the grantees. The specific
instruction relating to the required data element is visible at
each data entry point. Electronic financial reporting has
significantly increased the timeliness of financial
reporting.

rather than 30 minutes per response.
