Trade and Industry Courses
South Florida State College’s Corporate and Community Education (CCE) Department provides courses in various trade and industrial specializations. In the past, SFSC CCE has worked in conjunction with major business enterprises, such as John Deere, the Florida Association of Public Transportation, and the Florida Department of Transportation, to deliver the specialized training they demanded. Regular CCE courses include:
CDL Skills Test and Refresher Course
SFSC is a state-approved testing facility for the Commercial Drivers License (CDL) Skills Test, consisting of three parts: the state-mandated pre-trip inspection, covering 170 parts of the vehicle that must be checked; the basic controls test, covering backing maneuvers; and the 30-minute road course. Applicants who pass all three parts receive a Class A, B, or C CDL. Participants may use their own vehicles or an SFSC vehicle.
The refresher course is for experienced drivers whose CDL has lapsed or who wish to upgrade their CDL. One-on-one training with an instructor prepares students for the CDL Skills Test.
Miner Training
Our MSHA compliant new and refresher miner training is currently being offered at our Wauchula campus, which is centrally located in beautiful Hardee County. We offer state certified curriculum and instructors, as well as the smaller class sizes that are difficult to find in other programs. SFSC also offers a three day program instead of the more common two day schedule, since it has been proven that if the class is spread out over three days, participants are better able to retain the information.
