If you are considering a career that requires a professional license for employment, you will want to make sure that the program curriculum at HCC meets the criteria for the state in which you intend to practice upon earning licensure. It is important to understand that regulations and requirements for professional licensure and/or certification in Florida may differ from those in other states.
