The law requires educational institutions and job training establishments to designate an official that will be responsible for certifying approved training for Veterans and other eligible persons. Each educational institution must have a VA certifying official on staff. The certifying official must submit to VA each student’s enrollment information and any changes to such enrollment information. The “Designation of Certifying Official(s)” (VA Form 22-8794) provides VA with the names and signatures of those persons authorized to certify and submit to VA any new hours or changes in the enrollment of their VA students. The following administrative and legal requirements necessitate the collection: A. Titles 38 U.S.C. 3034(a), 3241, 3323(a), 3492, 3680, and 3684(a). 10 U.S.C. 16136(b), and 16166(b); Title 38 CFR 21.4203(a), 21.5200(d), 21.5292(e)(2), 21.5810(a), 21.7140(a), 21.7652, 21.7656. B.
