Current Financial Documents
Performance Based Funding (PBF)
The Performance Based Funding (PBF) Model was approved at the January 2014 Board of Governors Meeting. The development of the model included university presidents, provosts, boards of trustees, and other stakeholders starting in the fall of 2012. The model includes 10 metrics that evaluate Florida institutions on a range of issues.
The model has four guiding principles:
- Use metrics that align with SUS Strategic Plan goals
- Reward Excellence or Improvement
- Have a few clear, simple metrics
- Acknowledge the unique mission of the different institutions
In 2021, Florida Poly was eligible to participate in PBF for the first time.
