This program also includes courses for the Florida Child Care Professional Credential (FCCPC), the VPK Director Credential, and the Florida Director Credential.

Students who score below the required levels on state-mandated placement tests in writing, reading, and mathematics must enroll in and complete the appropriate college preparatory courses before they enroll in some required program courses.
