You will need your portal credentials to sign in. Once you have signed in, please follow the process outlined below to request your waiver.

1. Select the appropriate term (fall 2009)
2. Select your class from the drop down menu
3. Select whether the trip is mandatory or voluntary
4. Select the appropriate transportation type
5. Select whether the trip is listed on your class syllabus
6. Name your trip
7. Provide a brief trip description
8. Provide trip location and dates (if only a one day trip only enter start date)
9. Submit for approval

Once you submit your request, it will be forwarded to your department head for approval. Once approved by your department head, the request will be forwarded to Risk Management for approval. Once Risk Management has approved the trip, you will receive an email notifying you that your trip has been approved. In addition to the email you receive, each student enrolled in your course will also receive an email prompting them to approve the trip. They will approve the trip by signing into the program and electronically agreeing to the terms of the waiver created for the trip. You can log into your account at any time to review the status of the student's responses. You can also print a field trip roster and a hard copy of the waiver for students who are unable to complete the electronic process to sign.

If you have any questions or problems with this program, please contact Mike Thorpe in Risk Management at extension 6588.
