The Immokalee Technical Center is the newest technical training center in Florida. It will focus on state of the art career and technical education programs for high school students and adults. The center will also offer ABE/GED and adult literacy programs.

All programs will have active business partners which will go beyond the advisory capacity. We envision businesses and/or associations “adopting” programs to serve as foundations for curriculum support, financial assistance, connecting activities (internships, job shadowing, speaking, professionals in residence, etc.), and permanent job placement for graduates.

► Instruction and training which parallels the current demands of business, industry and continuing education is best for students.
► Instruction is meaningful when it is relevant to the students and incorporates current issues.
► Students must have opportunities to explore their own questions, ideas and interests in order to be effective lifelong learners.
► All students should develop and demonstrate effective communication skills.
► Students must be capable of compiling, processing and creating their own information.
► Instruction which recognizes the individual learning styles and integrated thematic approaches to learning is best.
► The entire school community must contribute to the educational process.
► Instruction must represent current technology and practices.
► Change is an ongoing process, not an event, and that planned change is a fundamental tenet of successful businesses, industries, schools and public agencies.

One of the unique facets of the center as proposedl includes site-based businesses established through open-to-the-public store fronts. The proposed storefronts include: a cyber café and full restaurant, a practicing medical office, an automotive service center, a childcare center, and a cosmetology center. The storefronts will serve several purposes. They will allow students to get direct training with customer service to provide soft skills training. They will also act as a conduit for marketing to future students by attracting them to the retail centers.
