The Purchasing Card (PCard) program at the University of Florida has proven to be the most efficient/convenient means of purchasing smaller dollar commodities and/or travel for official University business.  PCards are only for official, University-related business. You must complete PCard certification training before a University of Florida PCard can be issued.

PCards are only issued to employees in good standing.  The employee must be authorized by their Dean, Director, Department Chair (DDD) or their designee to have a PCard before it can be issued.  The PCard training contained within this site is provided as an ongoing resource for training and reference by employees who are PCard cardholders, reconcilers, and/or approvers. There is an index which can be used for reference after you complete training.

Please ensure that you read and understand the following materials. Then certify your understanding at the end by completing a short quiz.  To become a Cardholder you will need to complete:

• a Cardholder Agreement (If you haven't read it, please do so now)
• a Cardholder Application
• this training [Note: this training is new as of 3/30/09. It is not designed to be printed but viewed on-screen.]
