Innovative Excellence McFatter Technical College ____________________________________ WINTER/SPRING SCHEDULE | 2020
2 McFATTER TECHNICAL COLLEGE & TECHNICAL HIGH SCHOOL • WINTER/SPRING SCHEDULE | 2020
Opened in 1985 with the addition of the Hospitality Building in
1996 and the Technical High School in 1998, McFatter Technical
College operates on a $26 million complex on 24 acres at the
corner of Davie Road and Nova Drive, in the Town of Davie,
Florida.
A major event occured on June 24, 2014, when the School
Board of Broward County officially changed our name to
McFatter Technical College. Hence, a new era in career, technical
and adult education was launched.
McFatter Technical College was established as an area post-
secondary technical college of the School Board of Broward
County, Florida to offer technical education to both adults and
secondary students in over forty program areas. In addition,
McFatter holds membership, partnership or affiliation with over
fifteen local, state and national organizations.
Industry-validated curriculum, complemented by state-of-the-
art laboratories and equipment were designed to meet current
and future employment needs of South Florida business and
industry. The curriculum and specialized practical laboratory
experiences have enabled students to acquire, refine and upgrade
occupational skills on a full-time or part-time basis in day and
evening classes, distance, hybrid or face-to-face delivery.
