The Cayman Island Government just announced their new Travel Policy. In the preamble were the following notes on the value of conducting training here in Cayman. Shirlaws Cayman is pleased to already be supporting the Cayman Islands Government in several areas by providing training and coaching. Travel policy excerpt : TRAINING Where official travel is required to obtain training, determine whether the training can be provided through alternate means. Is similar training available online or within the Cayman Islands? Is the identified training required for a cluster of jobs Cayman Islands Government (e.g. continuing education for CPAs or similar licensed professionals, etc.)? If so, explore whether such training can be facilitated on-island at reduced costs per participant – e.g. contact your Ministry, the Civil Service College, etc. Even without a reduced overall cost it is advantageous to CIG to retain more of the expenditure in the economy and reduce lost traveling time by Civil Servants. There are numerous benefits of reducing official travel including the following: cost savings, faster decision making, more environmentally sustainable operations (by virtue of reduced transport emissions), and increased staff productivity (by reducing absence from work associated with physical travel times).
