The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale offers photography training specifically tailored to prepare students for professional photography appointments in south Florida. The Art Institute offers both a twelve month diploma and a two-year associate degree in photography. Broward Community College also offers a few courses in photography.
In the state of Florida, employment in the information sector, in which most photographers are employed, is growing at an annual rate of 1.64%. Due to the desirability of the work, competition for photography jobs is expected to be intense. Securing employment as a professional photographer in Fort Lauderdale, as anywhere, will require talent and persistence. However, the South Florida Metroplex, the largest metropolitan area in the south, is booming economically, and the tourist industry in Fort Lauderdale is booming—making Fort Lauderdale an attractive place to embark on a photography career.
