Miscellaneous Actions
There was a decrease in burden hours due to an decrease in the number of schools and training facilities, even though in previous collections, VA had estimated that the SAA would not need to review approvals for at least 50% of the programs requesting approval because the PL 11-377 deemed the following programs as approved for VA purposes without SAA review: • Accredited standard college degree program offered by public and non-profit institutions of higher learning • Flight training courses approved by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) offered by a certified pilot school that possesses a valid FAA pilot school certificate • An apprenticeship program registered with the Department of Labor • A program leading to a secondary school diploma offered by a secondary school approved in the State in which it is operating. SAAs are now required to review the aforementioned programs.
