Academic professional society meeting travel fund requests due Jan. 11

The Academic Assembly Council (AAC) travel fund supports professional societies that are recognized organizations holding regularly scheduled meetings primarily for the reporting and exchange of knowledge among members. The societies publish peer-refereed journals and/or edited proceedings of meetings to promote professional growth.

UC Cooperative Extension advisors, academic coordinators and specialists are eligible for one meeting approval per fiscal year (July 1 – June 30). AAC Program Committee approval is only for expense reimbursement from the Professional Society Meeting Fund. Leave with pay to attend the meeting must be approved by your immediate supervisor.

If you do not use the funds and do not notify Michelle Hammer Coffer (mahammer@ucanr.edu), you will be ineligible for funds for two years.

For guidelines for travel reimbursement, see https://ucanr.edu/sites/UCAAC/files/340495.pdf.  

Requests are due Monday, Jan. 11 at 5 p.m.
