Effort Certification and Reporting for Sponsored Research In Progress
Effort Certification is currently in progress for the January-June 2017 "period of performance." The Grant and Contract Accounting team is available to provide onsite and remote training and assistance for effort coordinators, schools, and departments across the University upon request in an effort to bring the university to full compliance.
Principal investigators must certify their effort cards and employees that work on their sponsored projects.
The certification applies to federal, state, local government, and pass-through funding. Effort certification is
required
to comply with federal regulations and university
policies
that govern the need to provide certification of an individual's effort along with reasonable compensation on such sponsored projects. It is an integral part of Rutgers' assurance to our sponsors that effort expended on their projects is justifiable, reasonable, and that cost share commitments are met. Failure to do so risks the loss of funding, cost disallowances, audit findings, and possible fines and penalties.
