WVU Travel Procedures


If a WVU employee is outside the continental US and needs to access a system or computer that’s behind VPN the employee needs to request a Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) account. Consider AVD as the replacement for Citrix. It can take a few days to a week, maybe more maybe less, to setup an AVD account. It’s important that a traveler notify ITS and its college IT support early in the travel process so that the AVD account can be setup and system access tested.
