SPDG Program March 30, 2011

 Registering with G5 is a three step process:  1) Requesting an Account,  2) Activating Your Account, and  3) Identifying Yourself as a Project Director.  You will need to complete all three steps in order to access your award.

 Activate your account and then log in to request Project Director access  Logging in  Must log in as the Project Director and must use the same exact name  Can then grant others access  Continually save your work  You will be timed out after 20 minutes even if you’re still typing  Hotline:

 In order to grant another person in your organization access to your performance report, that person must have already registered in G5.  You will need to know the and last name with which they registered.

 Only one person can have manager access and only one person can have submit access.  Users must be registered in G5 before you can add them to the package.

 Start trying to use G5 now  Project Officers cannot see what you see in G5, so the tip sheets and the hotline are your best bets for extra help  If all else fails you can send your report by mail  Don’t panic – we will get through this…

We are using the same program measures that we used the last few years Your project performance measures can be changed, but you need to receive approval from your Project Officer first If you are asking for a no-cost extension you will need to send your Project Officer a continuation report If you received forward funding you cannot enter your continuation report into G5
