§ 126A-3-2.  Reducing barriers to State employment.

The Commission shall do all of the following:

(1) Regularly assess the minimum qualifications for each position in an agency. The Commission shall review the necessary educational, experimental, and training requirements for each position.

(2) Determine when practical experience and training, such as military service, an apprenticeship, or a trade school education instead of a bachelor's degree is the appropriate qualification for a position.

(3) Identify jobs for which the minimum qualifications could be reduced from their present level.

(4) To the extent practicable, remove requirements for a bachelor's degree from position descriptions when the degree is not necessary for the position.  (2026-40, s. 1.)
