Let's Get Started

Florida CTE Programs That May Require State Approval

​

These programs are ideal for:

  • Private schools

  • Training providers

  • Corporate learning departments

  • Continuing education centers

​

Programs That Do Not Require State Approval

​

  • New Hire Onboarding

  • Frontline Employee Sales

  • Sales Enablement

  • Health & Safety (non-OSHA certification)

  • Policy & Procedures

  • Anti-Harassment

These programs can be offered as non-credit workforce training or adult enrichment courses without state oversight—as long as they are not marketed as diploma-equivalent or license-prep offerings.​

​

The following areas may require FLDOE or certification partner approval if tied to credentials or credit:

​

  • Technical Certification (e.g., CompTIA, OSHA, AWS)

  • Manufacturing (if aligned with state CTE frameworks)

  • Environmental (e.g., water treatment, conservation, environmental tech)

​

​

  • You're not issuing credit or diplomas

  • You're not using Perkins, WIOA, or other public funding

  • You're not marketing the training as a high school equivalency program
