Faculty Cost Share

Effort Web Content has moved to PAFC

Effective 1/1/2023, the effort reporting compliance team within Sponsored Programs Finance moved from Management Accounting and Analysis (MAA) to Post Award Fiscal Compliance (PAFC). This encompasses a change in where web content for effort reporting is housed. Moving forward, it will be on PAFC's website (https://finance.uw.edu/pafc/) under the Effort Reporting menu tab. Continual updates will be made throughout the rest of the calendar year (2023) to rebuild web content to reflect new systems and processes.

Cost Share occurs when a portion of the costs of an Award are not paid by the sponsor, but paid instead using resources within a department, school/college, or other party. Cost Share is a commitment made by the PI to use resources other than the Award itself for completion of the Award objectives.

The GCA webpage is the UW’s resource for information on Cost Share.

Faculty Effort Cost Share is expended on but not charged as a cost to an Award. Faculty effort can by committed in two ways:

  • Dollar-based, where the commitment is made for specific amount of salary; or
  • Percentage-based, where the commitment is made for a specific percentage of effort.

This website includes information on how to set up and manage Faculty Effort Cost Share.
