BIS typically conducts over 20 seminars each year, both virtually and in-person, at locations across the United States and overseas. The renewal of this generic information collection allows BIS to conduct the data collection and final assessments in a shorter timeframe, thus providing policy and program offices with needed results possibly before the next seminar.
