Professional Development Forms
CUPEU is striving to make the Professional Development application process as simple and paperless as possible. To this end, we are developing a web-based PD Application tool so that applications may be filled in and submitted online. However, this tool is still under construction. Check back regularly for updates. In the meantime, please use the forms below.
New! Automated Form Package
This Automated Form Package contains all the forms you'll need (and more!) to apply for Professional Development funding. It features linked fields so you only have to enter most information only once, and it does all the math for you. Our thanks to Napoleon Soberanis for his hard work on this.
Simply fill out the forms applicable to your situation, then print those pages. Click here if you're not sure how to print only the pages that you want. Please be aware that you cannot save the filled-out forms.
If you have problems opening or filling in the forms, please that ensure you're running the most recent version of Acrobat Reader. Click here to find and download the newest version of Acrobat Reader that's appropriate for your machine.
Forms You Must Complete:
- A - Application Summary
- B - Description of Request Form
- C - Total Budget Form
Forms You May Need to Complete:
- D - Conferences/Workshops/Training Form
- E - Travel Form
- F - Subscriptions Form
- G - Courses Form
- H - Other Form
- I - Supervisor's Approval of Absence Form
If you are attending a conference, workshop, course, or other training, you will also need to attach a copy of the description provided by the organization. This should include the name of the organizing body, dates, location, registration fees, hotel rates, etc. If this is a conference presentation, please attach a copy of the abstract or submission as well as proof of acceptance or, at minimum, the date it is expected.
How to Organize All That Paper:
Print six copies of the pages you need. Collate the pages in the same order you see them here. Supporting material must be attached to the back of the package, and do not attach anything to the front. Please use staples, not paperclips.
Send in the application before the deadline. You're done.
