CAPE - Secondary
The Florida Career and Professional Education Act was created to provide a statewide planning partnership between business and education communities, to expand and retain high-value industry, and sustain a vibrant state economy.
- The 2023-24 CAPE Industry Certification Funding List is a list of certifications and certificates with secondary and postsecondary funding designations.
- In the past the department has maintained two separate lists for secondary and postsecondary.
- Changes to section (s.) 1008.44, Florida Statutes (F.S.) from House Bill 1507 require a single list and a single rule for CAPE beginning in the 2022-23 school year.

- Once this work is complete, all current certifications will be reviewed using the new framework of quality and a new request submission process will be available.
