YUFA Sponsored Conference Guidelines
7 Dec 06 - Only
applications received by the due date will be considered. Applications
received after the due date will be considered only if an insufficient
number of applications have been received.
When submitting an application applicants must provide a statement of
interest which indicates how participation in that conference relates to
or will benefit the Association and its membership.
Applicants will
submit a final report to YUFA within one month of attending the
conference, in a format suitable for posting on the YUFA website.
Applicants will submit a final expense claim to YUFA within one month of
attending the conference.
All conference expenses are to be paid up front by the attendee and reimbursed by YUFA with appropriate documentation. Members arrange their own travel and accommodations.
YUFA sponsored
conferences and the number of attendees are approved by the Executive. [Priority is given to conferences hosted or sponsored by groups with
which YUFA is formally affiliated (such as OCUFA, CAUT, CLC, etc.), or
to those which are directed relevant to trade unionism or social
justice. Conferences of a strictly academic nature will not typically be
supported.]
Applications will be reviewed by a subcommittee of YUFA which includes
the VP External, Treasurer, one Equity Officer and a YUFA staff member.
Queries about unsuccessful applications should be directed to the VP
External.
