Level II Principal Preparation

Level I Educational Leadership Programs lead to initial certification in educational leadership for the purpose of preparing individuals to serve as school administrators (see http://www.fldoe.org/teaching/preparation/edual-leadership.stml). Level II Principal Preparation Programs build upon Level I training and lead to renewal certification as a school principal.
