Important Information
Everyone MUST complete a Conference Request Claim form and obtain approval from your supervisor(s) BEFORE registering for/attending any Conference, Webinar/Virtual Seminar, External Workshop/Training, or Accredited Course outside the District. Even if you don’t anticipate asking for reimbursement, there are liability issues that could arise if SAC employees travel outside of the district without first obtaining the necessary approval.
Funding Availability
Funding is on a first come first serve basis. Be sure to get your request in early in the academic school year. Please note that if you end up not attending the Professional Development activity, please notify the funding source to make the funds available to someone else.
Professional Development Funding Eligibility
Conference, Webinar/Virtual Seminar, External Workshop/Training, or Accredited Course. For any other funded PD activities (i.e. speakers, memberships, etc.) not requiring a CRC form please see the Other Funded Activity Request page [coming soon].
Conference Process & Forms:
Obtain your supervisor's approval before beginning the conference request process. Step 3 must be completed after your attendance at the event. Approval for future requests may be denied if all three steps are not taken. If you need assistance, please consult with your department/division's administrative secretary.
Step 1: Secure Funding - Funded Activity Request Form
It is best to have received approval from you manager for the conference prior to seeking funding.
Step 2: District Approval - RSCCD Conference Request Claim(CRC) Form
