FAQs: Tips for a ReMarkable Experience
How do I check my registration?
Your registration information can be found on your BAYADA University home page. At the top of
the page, click My Learning, then My Learning Plan to reveal the date, time, and location of
your training. Click the name of the class to make any changes to your registration and view
details about the class.
If you have any trouble making changes, updates or need further assistance, please email
the BAYADA University mailbox. >>
What if the weather is bad?
While we can’t control the weather, your safety is a priority. If inclement weather impacts any
training classes, a team member will communicate the changes via email as soon as possible to
all participants and facilitators.
What happens if I have to cancel my registration?
Life happens. If you are unable to attend a training class, go to your Learning Plan in BAYADA
University, click on the course, and select Reschedule Me. If you have any trouble making
changes or updates, please email the BAYADA University mailbox as soon as possible. Late
cancellations may result in a charge due to the planning and logistics that go into each session.
How do I make my hotel reservations?
Please contact your chosen hotel directly to
make reservations. Hotels for North Carolina
can be found on pages 3 to 4, and New Jersey
on pages 6 to 8. Please use the codes or links
provided in this document to ensure that you
get the contracted BAYADA rate.
You can choose to stay at a hotel not
recommended in this document. Please feel free.
A quick search of the Internet will provide many
local options (others listed on each Learning
Center’s travel page). If you choose to stay at a
hotel not listed in the Travel Guide, please plan
on coordinating your own transportation to and
from the NJLC.
BAYADA Home Health Care Page | 10
What is an incidental?
BAYADA covers the cost of your stay at your chosen hotel for the duration of your training.
This coverage includes the room charge, plus tax. It does not cover incidentals, including
non-essential hotel amenities such as room service, spa treatments, or gratuities.
For more information about what costs BAYADA covers, please see the Reimbursement
of Expenses policy. >>
Do I need to rent a car?
Car rental is at the discretion of your director. All of the major airports near the Learning
Centers provide shuttle and taxi service to the local hotels. Our recommended hotels also
provide shuttle service to the Learning Centers; please see pages 3 - 4 for more detailed
information on North Carolina, and pages 6 - 8 for New Jersey.
What should I wear?
The standard dress at the Learning Centers is business professional. Keep in mind: this
speaks to your training class. If you are in a clinical training where scrubs are appropriate,
wear what fits the position. See BAYADA’s policy on dress code for more information.
What time do I need to get there?
Class begins promptly at 8:30 a.m. We recommend arriving at least 15 - 20 minutes early, to
ensure that you have time to check in and grab the all-important cup of coffee.
Will food be provided?
The Learning Centers provide a light morning
snack, lunch, and light afternoon snack, as
well as coffee, tea, juice, soda, and water.
If you have a medical or religious dietary
restriction, please contact the coordinators
of the Learning Center you will be visiting
(contact information found on page 1 of this
document) or email the BAYADA University
mailbox. >>
Do you have bottled water?
In order to be as eco-friendly as possible, we do not provide bottled water. Each Learning
Center provides filtered water taps and cups for participants. Feel free to bring your own
bottle to fill!
BAYADA Home Health Care Page | 11
Should I bring my laptop?
Laptops will not be needed for training purposes. However, many participants like to use their
lunches and breaks to catch up on emails from the office. If you decide to bring your laptop,
please refrain from using it during class, as we encourage all attendees to be engaged and to
participate.
Do I need to do anything after class?
As The BAYADA Way states, we strive to continuously improve our work through evaluation,
education and training. Please be on the lookout for an evaluation following your training
session. In addition, assessments are assigned after Welcome, CORE and Director Training.
These will both be listed within your Learning Plan in BAYADA University.
