This 60-hour online course fulfills the Florida DOE's ESOL training requirements for administrators. This is a self-paced, facilitated course.

This training increases participants' awareness of their role and responsibilities regarding limited English proficient (LEP) students as their school's instructional leader and as a participant in the LEP Committee.

Topics covered include: background and requirements of the 1990 ESOL Agreement; evaluation of ESOL instructional strategies in the classroom; understanding of the major cultural groups represented in the local school district in order to meet the needs of LEP students within the context of a multicultural student population; and creating a positive and supportive environment to accommodate diverse learners. This training is worth 60 MIP points.

NEFEC's courses are for inservice points and are not college level courses. The Florida Department of Education will not accept NEFEC's courses if they are submitted by an individual for recertification or endorsement. They must be submitted through a district as part of their approved Master Inservice Plan.

Participants are responsible for following their district’s requirements to obtain inservice credit and endorsement. If you are unsure if your district will accept courses offered through NEFEC, you will need to check with your district Staffing Development office.
