When and where is the conference?
How do I get there?
Most of us are carpooling up from Utah, so coordinate with the group to share a ride. One attendee is expected to fly. See Plan Your Trip for the details.
Where will I stay?
In a nearby hotel. You can share a room or have your own — if you share, just one person books it. You'll reserve it after your Spend Authorization is approved. There's a list of nearby options on Plan Your Trip.
What do I need to do before I book travel or a hotel?
Create a Spend Authorization in Workday and wait for it to be approved. Only then should you book, using Deem through the BYU-Idaho Travel site. Booking before approval can jeopardize your reimbursement. The full walkthrough is on Plan Your Trip.
How do I get reimbursed?
After the trip, create an Expense Report in Workday from your approved Spend Authorization, attach your receipts, and submit. Your reimbursement comes back to you in your paycheck. Step-by-step instructions are on Plan Your Trip — and keep all your receipts (a phone photo of each one is the easy way).
Is there anything to do before the conference?
Yes — there'll be a short assignment to complete ahead of time, posted on Prepare & Training. It's still being finalized, and you'll have plenty of lead time.
What will we cover in the training?
The sessions focus on the real work of leading a grading team: supporting international graders, evaluation, scheduling, and burnout. More on Prepare & Training.
Who do I contact with questions?
Your ADI is your first stop for anything. If your question is about your role or the grading systems, the GLT 101 Canvas course is a great place to look too.
