1. In late September 1985, our Chief/Training Support Division
25X1 was contacted by of the DI's Administrative Staff in
connection with the DI's "Task Force on Paperwork Reduction" to
discuss Form 136 (Request for Training at Non-Agency Facility) and
Form 73 (Request for Internal Training). ,He was briefed on the
unique purposes of the two forms, apparently to his satisfaction.
2. In that conversation, the following points were noted:
a. The Form 136 doubles as a contract to purchase
training. (95% of external training carries some cost or
expenditure of funds, either in tuition and/or registration
fees, or travel and per diem, and special allowances.)
25X1 This form was designed by OTE and OTS,

one copy is the input document to the
computerized training records system; and one serves for
the obligation of funds (most external training funding is
decentralized, per 0/COMPT). Also, per earlier agreement
with the Office of Security's External Activities Branch,
the Form 136 substitutes for submission of Form 879,
Request for Approval of Outside Activity. Each block on

the Form 136 has been carefully analyzed as to its
objective. The information asked for in each block
satisfies a specific requirement so although the form
requires a lot of information, it is all needed. Redesign
of the form would not be productive in our view.
Automation, may be in order, but we need to see the results
of automating Form 73 first.
b. Form 73 is a Request for Internal Training which
incorporates substantially different information on the
student. It requires none of the detailed financial or
other regulatory information necessary for the Form 136.
The Form 73 is currently being automated. This automation,
which should become functional in late FY 1986, effectively
resolves the concern expressed in the DDI's memorandum.
Interestingly, this automation effort was accomplished with
the support of DI's Analytical Support Group (ASG).
3. Because of the unique nature of the two forms, plus the
fact that the Form 73 is being automated, OTE does not think
combining these two forms is appropriate.
