Supervisor Certification of Student Time

Supervisors are responsible for the certification and oversight of hours worked by students in their department. This responsibility holds true even when a supervisor uses a proxy, such as another staff member or a student manager, to assist with time management and approvals. This certification responsibility is also referenced under Timecards in Core Program Functions, as one of the required duties of every supervisor.

Important Supervisor Notification
Approved May 21, 2011, by the Audit Committee of the Berea College Board of Trustees

  1. It is the responsibility of the designated staff or faculty supervisor to certify the work hours of their student(s).
  2. The responsibility for reviewing and certifying time worked remains with the designated supervisor, even when that supervisor authorizes a student manager to assist with time reporting.
  3. Failure to certify students' time worked during a term will result in the withdrawal of the position(s) allocated to that supervisor, and the affected students will be reassigned to another supervisor. Reinstatement as a supervisor will require a signed agreement to assume time verification responsibility going forward.
