Maggie,

MSU gives a raise to current grant administrators that get their CRA.  Is is $1000 raise.  We have not hired anyone that has come in with a CRA already so I cannot answer your second question.  I hope that helps.

We are encouraging our grants administrators to seek CRA certification and would like to know if any of your institutions provide extra compensation. If so, please send us the following information.

Does a currently employed grants administrator (departmental/institute/center) receive extra compensation when they get CRA certification? What kind of compensation, i.e., bonus, stipend, salary raise, and how much or range?

Do newly hired grants administrators (departmental/institute/center) receive extra compensation if they have CRA certification? What kind of compensation, i.e., bonus, stipend, salary raise, and how much or range?

Thanks for your responses,

Maggie
