Career, Technical and Adult/Community
Education (CTACE) programs and services are
an integral part of Broward County Public Schools. Preparing
students to enter today’s highly technical careers
is the cornerstone on which the district’s workforce
development programs are built. Programs begin with
career awareness and exploration in middle school and
progress through specialized high school and postsecondary
technical education training programs, resulting in
the acquisition of a high-skill/high-wage job.
Adult and Community Education
programs and services are provided to thousands of economically
and ethnically diverse adults and children annually.
Programs are designed to improve the employability of
the workforce through Adult Basic Education (ABE), Adult
Secondary Education, General Educational Development
(GED), English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL),
Family/Intergenerational Literacy, Adults with Disabilities,
and Vocational Preparatory Instruction. Community Education
programs provide academic, recreational, health, cultural,
artistic, social science, and parenting preparation
programs.
