The UCF Human Resources Benefits department now offers a bi-weekly insurance and retirement enrollment lab to assist employees in completing their insurance and retirement enrollments. During these one-on-one sessions, key features of the benefits plans can be compared and issues can be addressed, which need to be considered when making election decisions. The enrollment lab will be held every other Tuesday from 2:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. in the Human Resources Training Room. New employees have 60 days from their date of hire to make health benefit elections. During the 60 day period, employees may elect coverage in a medical plan, dental and vision coverage, dependent and health care flexible spending accounts, life insurance and other supplemental plans such as disability, accident, cancer, hospitalization and hospital intensive care. New employees have 90 days from their hire date to choose the State University System Optional Retirement Plan or 5 months from their hire date to choose the FRS Pension or Investment Plan. During the enrollment period, employees may elect to participate in the Florida Retirement System Pension Plan (A&P, Faculty and USPS), Florida Retirement System Investment Plan (A&P, Faculty and USPS) or the State University System Optional Retirement Program (A&P and Faculty Only). The sessions are available by appointment only. To make an appointment, please call (407-823-2771) or email (
