- Monitor the department’s financial transactions and manage budgets
- Provide administrative support for developing departmental course schedules
What are the requirements?

- Each course maps to a specific competency (skill, knowledge, or ability) identified as important for success.
- In each certification program, participants will need to complete courses within two categories:
- Specialty—skills that are specific to that certification program (Fiscal, HR/Payroll, Academic Department Support).
- Personal Excellence—skills that are required for success in any type of administrative position.
What are competencies and how were they identified?
- Competencies are skills, abilities, or knowledge that contribute to success on the job.
- The competencies used in this program were identified and developed through extensive interviews, focus groups, and other research with those who currently excel in these administrative roles at UF.
