The PD Funds claims process is changing for faculty and staff.
Professional Development Fund requests can be entered and approved in Workday beginning November 16.
For requests that were held from October 9 to November 15, enter into Workday following the new process. No special action is required.
Submitting claims
You will submit claims electronically through Workday, without the need to fill additional forms or sign any papers. Your manager or supervisor will approve your claim directly in Workday.
Viewing PD entitlements
You can view your total balance, amount used, amount requested (claims in queue to be processed), and amount remaining.
For faculty, please note that your total balance and amount remaining includes carry forward, current year and borrow ahead together. If you want to know disaggregated amounts for carry over, borrow ahead and current year, please contact the Integrated Service Centre.
The borrow ahead is going still to be managed as a credit, and by submitting claims you agreed to the terms and conditions of the borrowed ahead that are stablished in the collective agreement.
Support with PD Funds
Visit the Integrated Service Centre for Workday resources and support, including how to submit claims and view your PD Funds entitlement. (The pd.faculty@ubc.ca email is decommissioned and all queries and tickets must be submitted through the ISC.)
Visit the Professional Development Funding page for guidelines about PD Funds. For Faculty PD Funds, additional improvements and changes will be attended through Faculty Relations or the Faculty Association.
