You are not expected to be expert in all content of the case.
Whenever possible, vacations should be scheduled during the students’ time off in the winter, spring and summer. When you have conferences or vacation, prior notification will be required so that a substitute can be provided for your group.

Available Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings during academic year (beginning of July to end of May), with more flexibility in summer.
