School jobs count your military training

The law requires school districts to credit your military education, training, and job experience for skilled‑trade jobs. You must submit a Joint Services Transcript or a similar record. The district must treat it as credit toward required training, experience, certification, or licensure. JROTC instructor certification counts as qualifying military training. This rule applies starting July 1, 2026.

JROTC instructors get Nevada teaching endorsement

Members or veterans with JROTC instructor certification can receive a Nevada endorsement to teach JROTC. The state education commission must adopt rules to allow this. Temporary, provisional, or advanced JROTC certifications qualify. The change takes effect July 1, 2026.
