Final Capacity Survey CBCS 7_13_2016
OMB Control No.: xxxx-xxxx
Expiration Date: xx/xx/20xx
THE
PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT OF 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13) Public reporting
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 18
minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions,
gathering and maintaining the data needed, and reviewing the
collection of information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and
a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
Below are skills and approaches that people sometimes use and develop when working on solving problems, or developing strategies to make improvements to their services or agency’s functioning. No group is expected to have, or develop, all of these skills.
Administration One:
Please think about the group of people from your child welfare agency who are currently working with the Center for States on (prefill name of component from CapTRACK) and describe the group’s current knowledge for each task listed. Then please give us your opinion of the group’s knowledge before your work with Center for States (First administration: prefill date work plan began from CapTRACK).
Administration Two and Three:
Please think about the group of people from your child welfare agency who are currently working with Center for States on (prefill name of component from CapTRACK) and describe the group’s current knowledge for each task listed. Then please give us your opinion of the group’s knowledge one year ago (prefill date of last survey administration from CapTRACK).
