Travel Support

The SFA Dean's Office is now providing Concur travel related support by hosting dedicated office hour sessions with Cindy Caron. To get the best and most of your session, we kindly ask that you email Cindy in advance and include any questions or relevant screenshots/materials that you would like to discuss during your meeting. 

We recognize and understand the need for faculty and staff to travel for conferences, events and other legitimate purposes to enhance programming, research, and/or outreach endeavors.

At the same time, as a state agency, we must safeguard our travel privileges and funds. We must practice fiscal, ethical and public responsibility. Therefore, we have established per-diem guidelines when using SFA funding. This policy sets forth rules and procedures that balance the school’s legitimate travel needs with sound stewardship of public resources.

REMINDERS:

Beginning May 7, 2025, travelers will be required to present a REAL ID-compliant driver’s license or identification card to board domestic flights, unless they have another acceptable form of identification, such as a passport.
