Miami-Dade County has accepted a report (File Number: 261045) detailing job classifications where active-duty military experience can substitute for traditional college degree requirements. The People and Internal Operations Department (PIOD) identified 485 such job classifications within the classified service and an additional 683 classified service job classifications that do not require a college degree. This initiative aims to expand hiring opportunities by valuing practical experience. The report was a response to Resolution No. R-1089-25, sponsored by Commissioner Roberto J. Gonzalez. The final action was taken on July 21, 2026.
