How is travel handled when needed for Training?
For a complete review of the ResponsiveEd Home office Travel for Training Reminders / Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs), please click here. This policy is maintained and updated by the Finance / Accounting team.
After registering to attend a scheduled ResponsiveEd training event, our Travel Coordinator will send confirmations to you via email if you requested a flight or rental car. Hotel accommodations are typically included as part of your final confirmation email regarding the event. The Hotel Name, Address and Phone number as well as a rooming list that shows check-in/out dates for each person attending that specific event will be included (please be sure to double check those dates to prevent errors at check-in or no show billing.
Should you have questions about your specific travel, you can reach the Travel Coordinator via email at Travel@ResponsiveEd.com
Airport Transportation: In order to provide high touch customer service to our Training attendees, we coordinate airport pick-up for those flying in for an event at the Home Office. Prior to your trip, we will provide a calendar invitation that includes the name and cell phone number for your group so that you can coordinate an Uber or Lyft together. You may be responsible for the transportation fee from the airport to the hotel, this expense will be eligible for reimbursement.
After training is concluded, the training team will typically use Uber to shuttle attendees back to the airport in groups. If you are traveling to another city/location, please use Uber or another reasonably priced option to get to your final destination. Any out of pocket transportation costs you incur can be submitted for reimbursement on your expense report after your trip.
When traveling to attend training, we try to find a suitable hotel near the Home Office that will provide a complimentary hot breakfast. For full day training events, lunch is generally provided during the event. If you are responsible for your meals, the amount that is reimbursable while traveling is as follows:
$14 for breakfast, $16 for lunch and $25 for dinner (that is the maximum allowed, including tip).
Meal gratuities in excess of 20% will not be reimbursed.
When requesting travel arrangements for training and/or conferences held in other locations, please refer to the following website that provides acceptable per diem GSA rates: https://www.gsa.gov/portal/category/26429) and work through our Travel Coordinator to finalize your trip.
Note: Do NOT pay for State hotel taxes on lodging in Texas.
How do I reserve Training Space at the Home Office?
Please contact any of us on the Training Team for assistance securing space in one of the Training Rooms we have available. You can also submit your request via email to Training@ResponsiveEd.com for review / reply. All of the training space used at the Home Office is available for you to book using your Google Calendar. Using the “Rooms” tab on your calendar invitation, look for Corporate and then rooms A, B, C or D. The default setting is typically set to only show available rooms. A member of the training team will review the request and alert you if there are conflicts with your request.
