State Secretary of Labor Bryan Slater further, in the same release, indicated that the state was looking into heavily regulated private industries to streamline the professional certification processes.
Virginia Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin on Tuesday announced a change in state hiring practices that would eliminate requirements or preferences that applicants for most state positions have a college degree.
A press release from Youngkin indicated that the change will take effect on July 1 and affect roughly 90% of state positions. The Old Dominion’s myriad agencies post as many as 20,000 job listings per year.
“On day one we went to work reimagining workforce solutions in government and this key reform will expand opportunities for qualified applicants who are ready to serve Virginians,” Youngkin said in a statement.
“This landmark change in hiring practices for our state workforce will improve hiring processes, expand possibilities and career paths for job seekers and enhance our ability to deliver quality services,” he continued. “Last month, Virginia achieved the highest labor force participation rate in nearly ten years demonstrating the Commonwealth’s sustained workforce developments.”

Time to get the Working Man’s PHD !!!!!!
We keep lowering our standards. Ever since the pandemic I have seen numerous industries that just hired the first body available and we see the consequences with that.
And what are the consequences if you hire indoctrinated kids straight out college 6:50? Colleges are ruining our country turning out all these liberal graduates. They have no real life skills to contribute to society.
they cant be no worse than the ones in charge now
