Florida Technical College was founded in 1982 to provide post-secondary training in specialized business fields. The main campus in Orlando opened in 1982, followed by the Lakeland campus in 1990, and the DeLand campus in 1997. Classes began at the Kissimmee, Pembroke Pines, and Tampa campuses in 2011, and the Cutler Bay campus opened in 2015.
