Mandatory Compliance Training Beginning in August

The University of Florida will launch a new university-wide compliance training
course this August. The online training is mandatory for all University of Florida
employees, as required by Florida Board of Governors’ Regulation 4.003.

The training will introduce the UF Compliance Program and review important
provisions of the Florida Code of Ethics. It will also discuss the Compliance
Hotline, UF’s non-retaliation policy and the responsibilities and reporting
expectations of all UF employees. The training will be available on August 1 and
must be completed no later than October 15, 2018. Please be on the lookout for
an email notification from myTraining about completing the course. The name of
the training module is “Compliance: A Collaboration for Success!”

We ask for your assistance in underscoring the importance of this training and the
need for all of your employees to complete it promptly. The training is concise
and should take no more than 20 minutes to complete. Once completed, the
training requirement will be satisfied for two years.

As you are aware, the University of Florida is a complex environment regulated by
a wide variety of entities. Ensuring every employee stays up-to-date on current
laws, regulations, rules, policies and procedures is of utmost importance and is
critical to the university’s success.
