Participants will be able to modify curriculum and offer instruction and evaluation compatible with student language diversity. This 18-hour course fulfills the Florida DOE's ESOL training requirements for teachers of other content areas, specifically Category III instructional personnel.

This is a self-paced, facilitated course. The course is completely online and requires no face-to-face meetings or specific dates/times required to be online.

The average time to complete a 18 hour course is 4 weeks but the course is self-paced so you can choose to finish quicker than the 4 weeks or can choose to take a little longer if needed as long as the coursework is finished by the course ending date.

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 its approved Professional Learning Catalogue. 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.
