What does degree equivalency mean?

What does equivalent mean in a job application?

When an employer uses the term equivalent, it typically means they will consider any job-related experience that will provide the candidate the necessary knowledge, skill, and abilities (abbreviated “KSA”) to be able to perform the functions of the advertised position proficiently.

Does a degree count as experience?

So to answer the original question, most employers would not consider work within the context of a college career as “experience,” but you do not want to discount what you have learned and accomplished through your college education.

Can work experience be substituted for a degree?

Work experience, in many cases, can be substituted for required college degrees. For example, in the Administrative Management career fields, 3 years of general work experience can be substituted for a 4-year course of study leading to a bachelor’s degree.

What is equivalent combination of education and experience?

When requiring a Master’s degree the equivalency statement on the JD will be “Equivalent combination of relevant education and experience may be substituted as appropriate.” This means that if someone has a Master’s degree this would equal six years of experience if they have a high school diploma and vice versa.
