This is a reminder that the Effort Reporting certification deadline, Friday, February 5, 2016 is in 30 days. To date, 20% of the Spring and Summer 2015 quarters effort reports have been certified. We encourage the campus to access your department’s effort reports in the Effort Reporting System and continue with the certification process. If you have outstanding effort reports from previous quarters, we ask that you continue to work on those too.

Please remind your Principal Investigators that they are required to self-certify their own effort. All other effort reports can be certified by the Principal Investigator, the employee or an authorized certifier with first-hand knowledge of the employee’s effort.

Note: Unless an effort report status is “Certified” the report is considered “Open” and requires review and certification. Effort Reports with a “Not Required” status should also be reviewed and verified to determine if effort or cost sharing should be reported.

ERS notifications are sent to employees that are assigned the Coordinator’s function in DACSS and to employees that subscribed through the ERS Listserv. To subscribe to this mailing list: Send an email to: ers-subscribe@lists.ucla.edu (Subject and body of the e-mail can be blank).
