The Career and Technical Studies major offers training in
Vocational Program Development and Vocational Teacher Education. The Program
Development sequence is designed to prepare students to plan, supervise,
conduct, and evaluate training programs in business, industry, and government.
The Teacher Education sequence prepares students to work in vocational high
schools. Completion of this program will result in a degree in Vocational
Teacher Education. However, certification in vocational education in Florida is
granted by local school districts. Documented minimum of 2 years of full time
work experience is required for certification.
