FTCE Fee Changes
The Florida Legislature is actively researching and examining ways to improve and streamline the teacher certification system, including the FTCE Program. The FTCE fee change summarized below comes as a result of these efforts.
On March 19, 2019, the State Board of Education (SBE) reviewed and appended a new fee structure that is effective April 22, 2019. New registrations created on or after this date will have the new fees automatically applied.
