The State of North Dakota has loosened its minimum qualifications significantly regarding education or experience requirements.  We have been putting more emphasis on knowledge, skills, and abilities.  Substitution of demonstrated knowledge, skills and abilities is frequently allowed in lieu of a degree.  A degree may still be required if it is a bona fide occupational requirement, such as for licensing.

________________________________
Dear Colleagues:

Employers are resetting minimum qualifications for a wide range of roles by dropping the requirement for a college degree for various professional positions. This is not only a private sector trend as states, including Pennsylvania<https://protect-us.mimecast.com/s/QwzSCXDlX5SjOZ53CDoGJY?domain=gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com> (click on link for Executive Order) and Maryland, have removed four-year degree requirements for thousands of jobs.

The State of New York is conducting a review of its titles to determine those where a degree can be an alternative requirement. We would appreciate your sharing anything that your state is doing to have  an experience pathway for careers typically requiring a  degree. Please respond to my email at Bill.Davis at cs.ny.gov<mailto:Bill.Davis at cs.ny.gov> by 3/31/2023.

Sincerely,
