- Submit Your Claims Online. FBMC announces online Flexible Spending Account claim submission through www.myFBMC.com. This process allows FSA participants to submit online a scanned image of a completed claim form along with black and white scans of supporting documentation. Submitting claims online gets reimbursement requests to FBMC faster, thus expediting reimbursement funds back to participants. Further details and instructions are available on the website.

- Early Learning Center. July 1 marks the beginning of the renaming of the Children’s Room to the Early Learning Center. The Center began over 30 years ago as place to provide temporary care for children of staff and faculty. Since then the Center has expanded programming and the mission now includes caring for children of students, staff, faculty, and the community. The Center also serves as a practicum placement site for Early Childhood Development Associate Degree students and an observation site for Education and Health Science students. We believe the new name appropriately reflects the goals and mission of the current center and is representative of the learning and activities provided to our youngest students.
