Students - Report positive COVID-19 tests using the Student COVID-19 Report Online Form. The College closely monitors CDC and State guidelines.

You will then be contacted by your Student Dean's Office by phone and/or email and provided additional information and resources that are available to students.
Employees - To report a positive COVID-19 result, employees should send an email to FMLA@broward.edu and also inform their supervisor. This mailbox is monitored by Talent and Culture, who will respond and provide information about the resources available to employees.
Protocol After Reporting
After reporting your positive COVID-19 test, you may be instructed to self-isolate based on your circumstances. The College is guided by CDC guidelines on ending isolation.
Employees should obtain clearance from the Talent and Culture department before reporting to their onsite work location. Students must obtain clearance from their Student Dean before reporting to any onsite location. These are general guidelines and you will receive more detailed instructions based on your case.
Contact Tracing
The Florida Department of Health is conducting broad test tracking and contact tracing. If you or someone you have been in contact with tests positive for COVID-19, public health professionals may call to help you identify the time frame when you may have been contagious and recall your close contacts during that time.
Answer calls from 833-917-2880, 833-443-53641, 850-583-2419, or county health departments to discuss potential exposure to COVID-19 with a contact tracer.
