Broward College Proposes Modification of Some Aviation Laboratory Fees

Fort Lauderdale, Fla. (May 29, 2018) – Broward College has announced proposed changes to a few of its laboratory fees. The recommendation follows an extensive review of several one-credit courses in the Associate of Science in Aviation Management degree. The College has combined courses (in some cases as many as five courses into one), thereby allowing students to gain an additional credential. The total lab fees, before the courses being combined and after the courses being combined, are the same. Please click here to view the new fee structure.

These changes will be presented to the Broward College Board of Trustees at the meeting on Tuesday, June 26, scheduled to begin at 1:00 p.m. at the Willis Holcombe Downtown Center in Building 33, Room 1208.

Florida Statute 1009.23(12)(a) grants authority to Florida College System Institutional Board of Trustees to establish laboratory fees that "shall not exceed the cost of service provided and shall only be charged to persons receiving the service."

All laboratory fees are used to purchase supplies and equipment that are specifically related to student learning outcomes and objectives of the course.
