OBTAINING TRAVEL AUTHORIZATION
- Determine if the potential benefits of the trip justify its
time and expense after considering cost effective alternatives,
such as teleconferencing.
- Familiarize yourself with your department's travel policies
and your grants travel policies, as they may be more restrictive
than the college's.
- Obtain appropriate departmental approval to take the trip. Approval
requirements are defined at the departmental level.
Spouse/Companion Travel
The college will not reimburse travel expenses incurred by your
spouse or another individual accompanying you on business.
Combining College Business Travel with Other Travel
The college will only reimburse you for the business portion of
the trip if it is combined with personal vacation travel. You must
provide evidence to support the business portion of the trip and
the allocation of the expenses that are business related. Obtain
a quote at the time of ticketing to document the incremental costs
that will be treated as personal expenses and include them with
your Travel Expense Voucher.
Overtime as it Relates to Travel
Refer to your particular union contract regarding compensation
while traveling on college business.
