Elementary Education Success Rate
As shown by the state-mandated public posting, FC reports a high success rate of elementary education students having passed the teacher certification examinations since the first graduating class in 2001.
To receive a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education from FC as well as a teacher certification, each teacher candidate must pass a set of three rigorous exams legislated by the Florida Department of Education.
Assistance is provided to aid students in studying for the tests, including online practice programs, practice test books, and individualized support.
