Undecided students are encouraged to participate in career exploration though the ASVAB exam and/or the Bridges program. In addition, the guidance department, with the help of volunteers, maintains a College and Career room for students to obtain resources to prepare them for life after high school. 6. Identify the career and technical education programs available to students and industry certifications that may be earned through those respective programs.

These programs include: Web Design, Digital Design, Interior Design, Early Childhood Education, and Automotive. Career education offerings at Oviedo High School also include Culinary, Nutrition, Bioscience, and Computer Science programs. Bioscience is of primary importance due to the Orlando area being a bioscience research center both in the medical industry and in the college preparatory programs. An increased emphasis will be placed on exposing more students to programs which prepare them for workforce-based needs. In addition, Oviedo High School has an extensive Advanced Placement Program where 27 subject areas are tested with 1,716 exams given in the 2016-2017 school year. The pass rate is 68% which is well above the national average.
