SUBSTITUTE ACTIVE-DUTY MILITARY EXPERIENCE

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-07-21 · report

This legislative matter concerns a report on county job classifications where active-duty military experience can substitute for traditional college degree requirements. The People and Internal Operations Department (PIOD) identified 485 job classifications within the classified service system where this substitution is feasible, and an additional 683 classifications that do not require a college degree. These changes are part of ongoing efforts to modernize recruitment and expand hiring opportunities by valuing practical experience. The report is a response to a resolution adopted by the Board of County Commissioners on November 4, 2025. The report will be placed on the next available Board Agenda.
