handle is hein.gao/gaobabegw0001 and id is 1 raw text is: 'BY THE US, GENERAL ACCOUNTING OFFICE Report To The Administrator Of Veterans Affairs VA's Program To Authorize Courses For Veterans Needs Improved Management Each of the past 5 years the Veterans Admin- istration (VA) has paid State Approval Agen- cies about $13.4 million to review and approve school courses and training estab- lishments for veterans. This figure has re- mained relatively constant despite the fact that program activity has decreased by over 40 percent during the same period. VA could better manage the program through closer oversight and control over State Approval Agency activities and by ensuring that its reporting and recordkeep- ing requirements and its system of retaining recoirds are in accord with the acceptable information management practices ad- dressed in the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980. GAO recommends that VA revise its State Approval Agency contracts and provide the oversight necessary to achieve an effective and efficient approval program. GAO also recommends actions to control both unnec- essary paperwork and inefficient require- ments regarding how records are retained. l-_,122642 GAO/IMTEC-84-6 OCTOBER 20, 1983
