Each figure is the middle program of that field in this area. Yearly earnings are the reported quarter times four, an estimate.Source: US Department of Labor, program year 2024 (July 2024 to June 2025). Only programs approved for workforce funding are counted; other schools in Miami may offer more. How these figures are made
Where the Miami job training numbers come from
Which Miami programs are counted?
Programs with classes in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach area that the state they're in approved for WIOA funding (public workforce funding under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act). Online programs are on the state pages. Each state keeps its approved programs on an eligible training provider list (ETPL).5 They come from the US Department of Labor's file for program year 2024 (July 2024 to June 2025), covering programs approved as of June 30, 2025. Schools that never applied for approval are missing, so this is a part of what Miami offers.
What the figures for each field mean
Each figure is the middle program among those that report it: half did better, half did worse. Prices are what most programs cost if you pay yourself (the middle half). Earnings are for the second quarter after students left, times four. Where a figure is missing, the table says why: "Not reported", "Left out" or "Not enough data" (what each means).
How reliable are the Florida figures?
We leave out the share working 6 months later for Florida Atlantic University: it reports about 5% of students working six months later while the same students earn $10,000 to $20,000 a quarter, which cannot both be right.
