The Florida College Access Network (FCAN) is at the heart of a movement to ensure all Floridians have the opportunity to achieve an education beyond high school and prosper in our dynamic economy.

By partnering with leaders, educators and communities throughout Florida—especially through community alliances called local college access networks (LCANs)—they strive to achieve the State of Florida’s SAIL to 60 goal: for at least 60% of Florida adults to hold degrees and workforce-relevant credentials by 2030.

It’s Seven Conditions for Success are:

1. Opportunity for Everyone: To build a talent-strong economy, all Floridians need access to a postsecondary education and the supports to complete it.
2. Clear information and guidance: Students of all ages and their families need exposure and counseling early and often to make informed decisions about their futures.
3. Affordable: Postsecondary education needs to be within everyone’s financial reach, regardless of household income or life circumstances.
4. Multiple pathways to success: Floridians benefit from multiple learning opportunities for academic achievement and career advancement.
5. Lifelong learning: No degree or credential is “one and done;” Floridians need to prepare for career changes through continuous learning.
6. Effective use of data: Transparent access to data on education and economic outcomes, especially for Florida’s diverse populations, help achieve our goals.
7. Community collaboration: When community partners work together toward a shared vision, they remove barriers, build a resilient workforce, and improve the quality of life for their regions.
