Assigning education requirements to a position

The education defined for the job is the default for the position. You cannot remove or change education defined for the job. You can add education requirements to the position. You can also add an education requirement that is already defined on the job, but change some of the parameters. For example a BS might be an asset for a job but essential for a position.

Note: You can also copy education from an existing position.
