Module 7. How to certify your effort with ECRT
Note: You don't have to remember all of this. When you're ready to certify,
you can refresh your memory with on-line guides and demonstration videos –
easily found from within ECRT itself.
Step 1
Open your Web browser and go to:
Step 2
Click the button that says Log Into ECRT.
Step 3
Choose UW-Madison from the drop down menu.
Then, enter your NetID and password.
Step 4
At the screen that says "Welcome to ECRT," click Continue.
Step 5
On the ECRT Home Page, find and click the link that says:
Certify/View My Effort.
It's at the bottom of the screen, toward the center.
Step 6
View your effort statement.
Step 7
Determine your effort distribution for the period.
Refer to Module 6 for guidelines on how to do this, taking into account
your activities for the period and your knowledge of what can and cannot
be allocated to sponsored projects.
Step 8
Compare your effort distribution with the numbers in
the Computed Effort column of the statement.
For each sponsored project:
| A. | |
If your effort percentage for
any sponsored project differs from the number in the Computed Effort
column by five percentage points or more, enter your estimate of your actual
effort percentage for that project in the Certified column. |
| B. | |
Otherwise, enter the number from the Computed Effort
column in the Certified column, rounding to the
nearest integer. |
Step 9
Enter a number in the Certified column for your non-sponsored
effort, if you have any. The numbers in this column must total 100%.
Step 10
Click the checkbox on each line of your statement.
Step 11
Click the Certify button.
Step 12
Read the text that begins with the words "I certify..." and
determine whether you agree with the statement. If you do,
click the I Agree button.
If you don't, contact your effort coordinator for assistance.
