Form for Requesting a
Delegation of the PI's Certification Authority
- When someone other than the PI has suitable means of verifying the work of
the project staff, an effort coordinator can print this form, complete it,
and send it to RSP.
Cover Sheet for Submitting
a Printed and Certified ECRT Statement
- For use when there is an ECRT effort statement but electronic certification is not possible.
This CANNOT be used as an alternative to ECRT merely for reasons of convenience.
Report
of Contributed Unpaid Effort/Activity on Sponsored Projects
- Use this form to certify if you devote effort to a sponsored project but receive no UW
payroll... and therefore have no ECRT effort statement.
