ECRT (Effort Certification and Reporting Technology)

What is ECRT?

The University of Texas at Tyler utilizes an on-line, web-based effort reporting system called ECRT (Effort Certification and Reporting Technology). This system facilitates both the monitoring of effort distributions during the year and the required annual certification of effort. ECRT can be used to monitor effort.

Certification Schedule

Effort Certification through ECRT will be undertaken quarterly. As with the previous effort reporting system, faculty and staff principal investigators will have 2 weeks (14 days) to certify. Important dates for time and effort certification are listed below.
