Approved programs must require student applicants to have a GPA of at leat 2.5 on a 4.0 scale or have completed requirements for a BA degree with a minimum GPA of 2.5 on a 4.0 scale; to pass the College Level Academic Skills Test, a corresponding component of the National Teachers Examination series, or a similar test; and up to 10% of students admitted may have these requirements waived. For continued approval, 90% of graduates must pass the written examination required by Sec. 1012.56. Program evaluation procedures must include program graudates' satisfaction with instruction and the program's responsiveness to local school districts. Addition criteria for continued program approval for nonpublic institutions must be developed in the same manner and must be based upon significant, objective and quantifiable graduate performance measures. Continued approave for a teacher preparation program is contingent on results of annual reviews, the plans for which incorporate provisions for involving primary stakeholds such as program graduates, district school personnel, classroom teachers, principals, community agencies, and business representatives in the evaluation process. Programs must receive at least a satisfactory rating from public schools and private schools that employ graduates. Each program must report the percent of graduates obtaining full-time teaching employement within the first year of graduation; the average length of stay of graduates in their full-time teaching positions; and satisfaction ratings. http://www.leg.state.fl.us/data/session/2002E/Senate/bills/billtext/pdf/s0020Eer.pdf
