Work with FCSC
The Florida Charter School Conference (FCSC) is an annual event sponsored by the Florida Department of Education’s Office of Independent Education and Parental Choice (FDOE/IEPC) and the Florida Education Foundation (FEF). The conference has been in existence since the creation of charter schools in Florida in 1996 and is designed to provide Florida charter school authorizers, operators, administrators, and teachers the opportunity to network with each other and DOE staff, share best practices and gather information from key DOE personnel during one-hour breakout sessions, and meet with exhibitors who offer goods and services designed for the charter school community. Total participation of the attendees and exhibitor representatives averages 1100 individuals.
The Florida Charter School Conference is a state government sponsored event; therefore, it must adhere to state statutes regarding all aspects of the event. All agreements are required to go through a procurement process and legal review.
Tallahassee Community College (TCC) and the Florida Education Foundation (FEF) are fiscals agents for the event. Both entities are tax-exempt and will provide their tax-exempt certificate to selected providers.
When a provider is selected by FDOE from the RFP results, an agreement will be done through the fiscal agent assigned by FDOE. This can be a lengthy process that may take up to two months to complete.
