Effort Reporting

The purpose of effort reporting is to provide a reasonable basis for distributing salary charges among direct and non-sponsored activities. Adherence to our Effort Reporting Policy ensures that efforts are:

  • Appropriately documented;
  • Certified by authorized personnel in a timely manner;
  • Certifications comply with sponsor requirements and federal regulations; and
  • Based on reasonable project expenditures, with respect to salaries and wages.
