No college degree necessary: Thousands of state government jobs in Maryland will be available to people without four-year college educations, Gov. Larry Hogan announced. John Walker/Flickr / hide caption

The state is launching what the governor calls a "first in the nation" workforce development program to recruit qualified workers who do not hold college degrees. Rolling back the barrier will help fill government positions left vacant during the pandemic, the governor said during a press conference. More than 300 state jobs that don't require four-year degrees are currently open and posted online, he added.

Around 38,000 people are currently employed by the state of Maryland, and nearly half of those jobs could be performed by qualified candidates without four-year degrees, according to the governor. Hogan said that other qualifications, including relevant experience, training, or community college education, will be given equal weight for many state government positions in IT, administrative work, and customer service.

STARs represent an "untapped pool" of workers who can help the state fill crucial positions, Hogan said. "People shouldn't be compensated based on their years of education, but what their skills are to do the job," he added.

Hundreds of unfilled state government positions are now posted on Maryland's job board. Outside of Maryland, the D.C. government also has a large number of job openings; the city is hosting two virtual career fairs this week to help fill them.

"Requiring a medical degree to treat patients or a civil engineering degree to design a bridge is common sense," Auguste wrote in a Washington Post op-ed last year. "By contrast, requiring a generic college degree to be considered for jobs such as office manager, sales representative, digital marketer or data-center technician may be common, but it makes no sense."

"We really want an economy where if you can do the job, you can get the job. And, if you can learn new, valuable skills, you can earn more. And, if you make the effort, you can also make progress. And this initiative is a very important contribution to that here in the state of Maryland," said Byron Auguste, CEO and co-founder of Opportunity@Work.

There are currently more than 300 open government jobs in Maryland that don't have this pre-screening requirement. All of these available jobs will be posted on Stellarworx, which is Opportunity@Work's Maryland STARs talent marketplace.

An industry-recognized occupational or skill credential is a verification of an individual's qualification and competence in a specific career area. Credentials are typically issued by a qualified third-party such as a vendor, industry association, or governing board after an individual has completed an assessment demonstrating proficiency for a specific skill set. Only state-approved industry credentials aligned with a MSDE-approved CTE program of study are identified for reporting in Maryland's data collections. This dashboard report identifies industry credentials earned by CTE concentrators. CTE concentrators are students that have completed two courses in a CTE program of study and have enrolled in a third.
