Learn, grow and achieve through the EEP 

The University of Florida’s Employee Education Program (EEP) helps eligible faculty and staff pursue their academic goals by providing tuition assistance for up to six credit hours of coursework per semester at UF or the state university closest to their work location. 

Whether pursuing an undergraduate degree, graduate studies, a certificate program or individual courses, the EEP provides an opportunity for employees to continue their education while building a career at UF.

Read on to learn more about the program’s impact on UF employees, and visit the UFHR website to review upcoming deadlines and register for the spring 2027 information session, coming up on Nov. 19 at 2:30 p.m.
