The bill titled "Reimagining Education and Career Help Act" aims to enhance Florida's workforce and education system by revising the definition of "credential" within the existing law. Specifically, it expands the definition to include leadership and soft skills certificates offered by accredited educational organizations or entities certified by recognized education and training entities, alongside existing credentials such as apprenticeship certificates, industry certifications, and various degrees. This amendment is part of a broader initiative to foster collaboration between state businesses and educational institutions, ultimately improving training and access to a more integrated workforce for all Floridians. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2026.
