| If you are requesting a speaker to travel outside the Washington, DC,
metropolitan area, you or your organization must pay for all travel expenses
of the speaker. Such travel is accomplished through the "Sponsored Travel"
mechanism, which requires sufficient time for the employee to obtain advance
approval. Sometimes the requested speaker may have official
responsibilities which may affect your organization, causing a conflict. The
requested speaker may consult with appropriate staff to determine whether
the conflict hinders the ability for you to pay travel expenses. |
