Requesting Time Off

You must ALWAYS submit a Time Off Request even if you do not need a substitute teacher for your class.

Create Time Off requests through PLI Connect 2.0. 

Time Off Requests placed with less than 24 hours notice require HR approval. Submit your request via Connect, and our team will follow up with you. 

If your class start time is less than 3 hours away, email subbing@proxlearn.com instead of submitting through Connect 2.0.

  1. Log in to your PLI Connect 2.0 Account
  2. On the home page select "Request Time Off"
  3. You will need the PLI Canvas link and course title for each of your classes. The link can be found in the Enrollments tab in Connect.

  4. Fill out ALL required fields.
  5. Read the Time Off Request Policy & Directions.

6. Select Confirm.

7. Select the date. You can only select one date at a time. 

8. Copy & Paste the course title exactly as it appears in Canvas. 

9. Select your Video Conferencing Platform. 

10. Notes to subbing - DO NOT Put lesson plans here. (ex: class meeting time if it differs from the Canvas title, reason for time off request)

11. Copy & paste the PLI Canvas link (even if your class does not use the PLI Canvas)

12. You must SUBMIT a request for each of your courses that you will not be teaching, EVEN if the course does NOT require a sub.

***You will not be able to upload lesson plans in your sub request. Please leave lesson plans in the PLI Canvas or Google Classroom for each class. You will need to provide Sub Lesson plans or Facilitator Lesson plans (for absences of 1-2 days or for 3+ days). Knowing which to provide will be based on the needs and agreement with the school. This requirement will be listed on the Success Plan in Connect.

After you submit the form(s), the Subbing Team will review it and a sub will sign up and be assigned, if needed. The assigned sub may change. Please leave all relevant class information in the PLI Canvas or Google Classroom rather than contacting them directly. 

Please ensure that your less on plans are located in PLI Canvas or Google Classroom. Your sub will be added to Canvas for your course(s) by the morning of the subbing event.

**When to Email Subbing:

  • Emergencies
  • Less than 3 hours to class time
  • Multiple day requests
  • To cancel or change the time of a time off request
