Gold Standard Career Pathways Articulation Agreements are developed periodically through a consensus process with the Florida College System institutions and are based on industry certifications on the Department of Education’s “CAPE Industry Certification Funding List.” Seventeen new articulation agreements have recently been developed and approved by the Florida College System institutions and the Articulation Coordinating Committee. Approved by the State Board of Education, the Gold Standard Career Pathways Articulation Agreements continue to provide guaranteed college credit for students who have earned the industry certification specified in the agreement and enrolled in the specified associate degree program. This is a saving of tuition costs for the students and eliminates the need to repeat coursework mastered as evidenced by passage of a third party examination leading to the award of an industry certification.
