Program Related Initiatives
Throughout the year, various students find ways to both gather experience in their field of study and give back to the community. Several program-related initiatives include:

- Film and Video Program – Students and faculty participate in the various film festivals in the area.
- Criminal Justice Program – Students and faculty work close with the Orange County Sheriff's Association to experience crime scene investigations with real-life scenarios instead of having to do mock ones. Students also have an opportunity to visit several jails to observe.
High School Initiatives
The North Orlando campus makes every effort to involve high school students in various activities.
