Low literacy costs the U.S. economy over $300 billion in lost earnings each year. 📉💬
Investing in adult education isn’t just life-changing for learners — it strengthens communities and fuels economic growth. 💼✨

When done right, adult education creates pathways to high-wage, high-demand careers, workforce success, and economic mobility. Proud to celebrate Adult Education & Family Literacy Week and the life-changing opportunities being created @ATCTechCollege & @browardschools.

Florida is all in. When the people who used to do the work get to keep pushing the same mission from new seats, good things happen.
Proud to keep fighting for American workers. 🇺🇸
Thank you Secretary @Sonderling47 and SBA Administrator @SBA_Kelly for elevating the great workforce training happening across @EducationFL. – at Fort Lauderdale, FL

Florida is ready to lead. Under @GovRonDeSantis, we built the nation’s #1 workforce education system around high-quality, high-wage pathways. Workforce Pell will help even more Floridians access short-term training that leads to a great job, without unnecessary debt.
Too many Americans got stuck chasing degrees they couldn’t afford.
Workforce Pell will now fund high-quality training for in-demand jobs — in just 8 to 15 weeks.
President Trump is delivering on his promise to strengthen America’s workforce.

Five years ago, @HenmackIII gave me the opportunity to join this work when he was Chancellor. I knew then his leadership would bring him here. It's a full-circle moment to welcome him back as Commissioner and an even better one to roll up our sleeves and get to work for Florida’s students, educators and workforce.
We’re excited to have Commissioner of Education @HenMackIII back at the Florida Department of Education!
We look forward to advancing student achievement, supporting educators, the American worker and adult learner, and working with schools, colleges, universities & workforce development partners across the state to ensure every Floridian has the opportunity to succeed.
Welcome home, Dr. Mack!

Millions of Americans disconnected—neither employed nor enrolled—plus ~40M with some college, no credential.
In Florida, no longer can we tolerate dead-end seat time programs—it’s skills, apprenticeships, & Integrated Education & Training (IET), the game-changer. Adults build literacy + occupational skills concurrently, earning credentials for high-wage jobs in healthcare, manufacturing, & more. 🇺🇸🇺🇸⬇️
It’s never too late to reach your goals.
Florida’s adult education programs help individuals earn their diploma and build skills for today’s workforce.

Thank you, President Plinske! It was a privilege to join this conversation about strengthening Florida’s talent pipeline and creating clear pathways from learning to earning.
Grateful for partners like @ValenciaCollege who help turn that vision into opportunity for students!
Excited to hear from our @EducationFL and @FLCollegeSystem leaders Kevin O’Farrell @YoppToTheTop @TonjuaWilliams in conversation with @FLChamber CEO Mark Wilson about #Florida’s strategies to fuel the talent pipeline.

Built by students. Forged in America. 🇺🇸🦅
This 7-foot America’s 250 sculpture was designed and handcrafted by students at Lake Technical College. A reminder that the next generation of American makers is alive and well.

Please join me in welcoming Dr. Mark Baird as our new Associate Vice Chancellor for Career and Technical Education at the Florida Department of Education.
Mark started this week and we’re thrilled to have his leadership and experience helping strengthen CTE opportunities across Florida.
Welcome to the team, Mark! 👏
ACE of Florida retweeted
When I stepped into a CTE classroom early in my career, I never fully realized just how life-changing these opportunities could be.
What I saw then and what I see even more clearly now is that Career and Technical Education opens doors. It gives students purpose and a clear pathway to meaningful careers.
Florida is now #1 in Workforce Education and that success belongs to our educators!
THANK YOU for the work you do!
