Among the biggest challenges PIs face are not knowing what and when to report, how and who should certify, summer salary regulations, and how to effectively collaborate with the grants management or sponsored programs office. To make matters worse, auditors have relentlessly focused on this issue in recent years.

During this insightful webinar, your expert presenter, Dr. Michael Lesiecki, clearly defines the PIs effort reporting responsibilities, provides an insider’s look into the audit process to help in knowing what to do when the auditor comes, reveals collaboration tactics with the institution to ensure compliance, and much more. Direct examples from major universities will be shared. Walk-away with the tools to effectively utilize an existing effort reporting system and discover how to set flags to help you identify problems or the need to take corrective action.

5 Key Take-Aways:

• A clear understanding of the PIs responsibilities in the area of effort reporting
• Identification of potential problems and issues associated with effort reporting
• Options for setting up a robust effort reporting system and validating it
• What you should know and do at the beginning, during the project and if the auditor comes
• How to effectively work with the grants accounting, grants management and sponsored research offices (they are not the bad guys)
