54 Absence Process and Recording Absences in InPlace

Students must notify their preceptor by phone as soon as they become aware they will be absent from placement, and record their absence in InPlace.

Follow these step-by-step instructions to properly record your time off within 24 hours of your absence:

• Navigate to your Schedule: Log into InPlace and go to Confirmed placement > Schedule.
• Locate your Timesheet:
  • If a schedule is present, select the Timesheet icon located under Action.
  • If you do not have a schedule visible, you must first select Add Day to Schedule.

• Log the Details: Complete the timesheet by entering:
  • The hours absent.
  • The absent reason.
  • Any hours made up (if applicable).
• Upload Documentation: If you are absent for more than 2 days due to illness, you must upload your medical certificate to InPlace using the Timesheets attachments feature.
