A four-year degree may not be required
This is a skills-based career (sometimes called a STARs job): many people get hired through experience, training, or a shorter credential rather than a bachelor's degree. In the past year our region had 169 local openings here that did not require a four-year degree. Most of these openings do not list a formal education requirement.
