The Broward College cross functional team evaluated and reacted to the crisis and serves as a recommending body for the response to the pandemic. Eight task forces were created to review and advice on a plan for the different areas of the College: • Safety, Security and Environmental Health • Talent and Culture • Facilities • Information Technology • Academic Affairs • Academic and Accessibility Resources • Student Services • Events Broward College (BC) continues to work closely with public health officials at all levels to support the health and safety of the campus community. The Broward College COVID-19 Cross-Functional Team aligned its preparation and efforts with guidance from the United States Center for Disease Control, Florida Department of Health, Broward Health and local authority. ASSUMPTIONS • Action Plans indicated herein are specific to Broward College and may not deploy in the same timeframes as those on a Federal, State, or Local level. • The measures contained herein are not exhaustive but provide a basic roadmap that can be instituted at all corners of the campus community. • Responsibility is shared by faculty, staff, and students to help avoid illness and maintain operations. • Specific operations associated with employees and students at BC will be operationalized at each Unit, Division, and Department based on the principle elements of each functional team’s action plan of reopening. • This is a living document and will be reviewed and revised as needed. COVID-19 Response Plan and Guidelines 4 A COVID-19 Operation Checklist (Exhibit 00) was developed to provide guidance for the different phases of operation: • Action Plan 1 (AP1) – Remote work and learning with only necessary essential employees on campus; • Action Plan 2 (AP2) – Remote work and learning except when face-to-face learning environment is necessary; and • Action Plan 3 (AP3) – Resume face-to-face operations at or near 100%, while continuing some of the newly established guidelines as required. This checklist represents best practices and is based on national, state and local authorities having jurisdiction. It is a living document and will be updated accordingly. COVID-19 Response Plan and Guidelines 5 1 SAFETY, SECURITY & ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH TASKFORCE GUIDELINES 1.1 TESTING AND CONTACT TRACING During Action Plan One (AP1) , Action Plan Two (AP2), and Action Plan Three (AP3), there will be a system in place for soliciting and monitoring learners, employees, and vendors for positive COVID-19 tests, verification of tests when possible, and contact tracing for potential onsite exposure. • Students shall report positive COVID-19 tests, self-isolation, or quarantine situations using the Student COVID-19 Report Online Form. The College closely monitors and follows CDC guidelines. Once you submit your report using the link above a team will review your information and you will be contacted and provided additional information and resources. o Student Dean will identify close contacts and will advise student on CDC recommendations and when they are eligible to return to campus. • Employees shall report illness or positive COVID-19 to their supervisor and then to Talent and Culture by sending an email to [email protected]. o Talent and Culture will identify close contacts; will communicate with designated personnel (including Facility Manager); will advise employee on CDC recommendations and when they are eligible to return to campus. • Vendors who have an employee on Broward College property who test positive shall notify their contract manager. o The contract manager will notify the department assigned contact tracer who will obtain required information from vendor and monitor return to campus based on CDC recommendations; and will communicate with designated personnel (including Facility Manager). Unless fully vaccinated, close contacts will be asked to quarantine for a period of 14 days from the date of the potential exposure and not return to campus. If you are fully vaccinated then CDC does not call for a quarantine period, so long as you aren’t experiencing symptoms. If you are tested and found to be positive for COVID-19 then you will be asked to self-isolate for a period of 10 days from the day you began feeling ill or experienced symptoms. Employees should obtain clearance from Talent and Culture before reporting to their on-site work location. Students will obtain clearance from their Student Dean before reporting to any on-site location. These are general guidelines and you may receive more detailed instructions based on your individual case. COVID-19 Response Plan and Guidelines 6 If you are working or learning remotely and are unable to continue working or learning remotely due to caring for yourself or another due to COVID-19, please notify your supervisor or instructor. Employees can find resources on theTalent and Culture COVID-19 Resource page (available on Connect). There are many resources available to assist you through this difficult time. 1.2 SOCIAL DISTANCING Broward College follows the recommendations

  • Florida Colleges Again Top Producers of Associates Degrees in the Nation
    May 2009 DR. ERIC J. SMITH, COMMISSIONER ● DR. WILLIS N. HOLCOMBE, CHANCELLOR EDITION 2009- 02 Florida Colleges Again Top Producers of Associates Degrees in the Nation Each year, Community College Weekly releases an annual report of the Top 100 Associate Degree Producers in the nation. Data collected by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) through the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data Set (IPEDS) are examined to provide a “tangible and countable outcome that lends itself to analysis and ranking.”1 Year after year, schools in The Florida College System consistently earn recognition as top producers for the total number of Associates degrees granted and the total number of Associates degrees conferred to African American and Hispanic students.2 Associates degrees are defined as Associate in Arts, Associate in Science, and Associate in Applied Science. For 2008, 49,354 Associates degrees were awarded in The Florida College System.3 The institutions and their ranks for 2005 through 2008 are presented in Tables 1-3 below. Table 1 shows the Florida institutions that were ranked among the Top 100 Producers for the total number of Associates degrees granted along with each school’s rank. For each of the past four years, at least half of all the schools in The Florida College System were listed in the top 100. In addition, over half of the schools listed below ranked among the top 25 producers of Associate degrees. It is notable for three years (2005, 2006, 2007), Miami Dade College, Valencia Community College, and Broward College have been among the top 5 degree producers and Miami Dade has consistently ranked first.
