The FTCE® (Florida Teacher Certification Examinations) is a suite of tests designed to assess the knowledge and skills of prospective teachers in the state of Florida. These exams are required for those seeking teaching certification and are used to ensure that candidates have the necessary capabilities to effectively teach in the Florida public school system.

The General Knowledge Test (GK) (082) is designed to assess the basic knowledge and skills in four areas essential for all teachers. Each section is scored separately, and you must achieve a passing score on all four sections to pass the entire test. The passing score for each section is scaled, requiring a minimum score of 200 out of 300.
- English Language Skills (ELS) (826): This 40-minute section assesses grammar, vocabulary, and reading comprehension.
- Reading (827): This 55-minute section focuses on reading comprehension and interpretation across various types of texts.
- Mathematics (828): This 1 hour and 40-minute section covers basic mathematical skills and problem-solving in areas such as algebra, geometry, and statistics.
4. Essay: Test-takers are required to write an essay that demonstrates their ability to communicate effectively in writing. *Pocket Prep does not offer prep for this section.

The Professional Education Test (PEd) (083) evaluates pedagogical and professional knowledge across various aspects of education. It covers topics such as instructional design and planning, student learning assessment, classroom management, and the professional environment. This section consists of 80 multiple-choice questions, is 2 hours and 30 minutes long, and has a passing score of at least 200 out of 300.
