Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners accepted a report on substituting active-duty military experience for traditional college degree requirements in county job classifications. The People and Internal Operations Department (PIOD) identified 485 job classifications where military experience can substitute for a college degree and 683 classifications that do not require a degree.
