SUPPORTING STATEMENT FOR PAPERWORK REDUCTION SUBMISSION
Program Monitoring Data Collections for National Science Foundation (NSF) Innovation Corps (I-Corps) Programs
1. Describe the Potential Respondent Universe
The entire universe of respondents will comprise of approximately 2,400 participants, 1,200 from the I-Corps National Program and 1,200 from the I-Corps Hubs Program per year, until the expiration of this data collection request.
The survey will be given to all participants of the Program, which makes the collection a census.
2. Procedures for the Collection of Information
Email addresses that the program participants provided at the time of program registration will be used to inform them about the survey, as well as sending them links to access the web surveys at the interval specified on each survey (Pre-course, Post-course, and Longitudinal).
3. Methods to maximize response rate and minimize non-response rate
To maximize the response rate, we will notify the respondents ahead of sending out the survey to convey the importance of these data that we are collecting from them, and establish credibility to the respondents.
To minimize (survey) non-response rate, we plan to send out 2 reminder emails to program participants and urge them to fill out the surveys.
