Abstract: Under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer

Bureau's primary functions is to conduct financial education programs.
The Bureau seeks to obtain approval of a generic information collection
plan to collect qualitative data on effective financial education
strategies and consumer experiences in the financial marketplace from a
variety of respondents, including financial educators and consumers.
The Bureau will collect this information through a variety of methods,
including in-person meetings, interviews, focus groups, qualitative
surveys, online discussion forums, social media polls, and other
qualitative methods as necessary. The information collected through
these processes will increase the Bureau's understanding of consumers'
financial experiences, financial education and empowerment programs,
and practices that can improve financial decision-making skills and
outcomes for consumers. This information will also enable the Bureau to
better communicate to consumers about the availability of Bureau tools
and resources that consumers can use to make better informed financial
decisions.
Request for Comments: Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the Bureau, including whether the information will
have practical utility; (b) The accuracy of the Bureau's estimate of
the burden of the collection of information, including the validity of
the methods and the assumptions used; (c) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) Ways
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents,
including through the use of automated collection techniques or other
forms of information technology. Comments submitted in response to this
notice will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB
approval. All comments will become a matter of public record.
