1. Introduction

The University of Florida Division of Continuing Education (DCE) was established in 1972 to administer and support non-credit and designated credit programming sponsored by the University. DCE has the responsibility of insuring that these programs are conducted in accordance with the laws, rules, regulations, and policies of the State of Florida and the University.

UF Regulations 6C1-3.0376 Miscellaneous Fees

Section (21) Division of Continuing Education Auxiliary Fund.

  1. All registration fees or other income collected as payment for development of or participation in non-credit educational activities (i.e., workshops, symposia, conferences, etc.) shall be deposited into the Division of Continuing Education auxiliary fund. Non-credit courses sponsored by a unit of the Institute of Food and Agricultural Studies [IFAS] and administered through the IFAS Office of Conferences and Institutes may be exempted from this requirement.

  2. Revenues received for the purpose of planning, offering, and recovering all costs of sponsored credit institutes and other self-funded credit programs as provided by Board of Governors Regulation 6C-7.008(1)(a) will be deposited into the Division of Continuing Education auxiliary fund.

  3. The Division of Continuing Education auxiliary fund may be used for the recovery of any additional fees established for off-campus educational activities under section (19) of this regulation, or for continuing education credit courses as provided by Board of Governors Regulation 6C-8.002(2)(b)4.

The Division's Conference Department provides planning and management services for non-credit and designated credit programs. UF units should contact the Conference Department early in the planning stage of programs or activities involving registration fees.

Additional guidance and expectations regarding financial and internal controls have also been promulgated by the University of Florida. UF's Guiding Principles of Financial Management can be found at the University Controller's website.

This Policy and Procedures Guide will assist you in managing your DCE program. If you have any questions or cannot find the information you need, please feel free to contact us at (352) 392-1701 or by email at conferences@dce.ufl.edu.
