Because the certification statement is in the faculty member’s name, they must be the one who downloads it under federal law. You can add a delegate position who helps them complete the information but they cannot log in as the PI and certify.

Subject: [RESADM-L] Faculty Pushback on SciENcv for NSF Proposal

[This email originated from outside of OSU. Use caution with links and attachments.]

Hello everyone,

I'm reaching out for some advice regarding a faculty member's NSF proposal submission. While working with a faculty member on their proposal, I encountered some resistance regarding the use of SciENcv. The faculty member is hesitant to access and utilize the platform and has offered to share their login credentials and password so we can create the necessary documents and populate them on their behalf.

This situation raises some concerns:

Security: Sharing login credentials is a security risk, and it's not a practice we want to encourage.
Faculty Ownership: Ownership of research accomplishments is crucial. SciENcv allows faculty to control and update their information.

My question:

Has anyone else encountered similar pushback from faculty regarding SciENcv? If so, how did you address the concerns and encourage their use of the platform?

Additionally:

Does your institution have a policy in place regarding the use of SciENcv for grant proposals?

Any insights you can share would be greatly appreciated.

Steve
