Unfortunately, if you want to attract the military personnel to your programs of study, most expect consideration of life experience. Having served for twelve years myself, I do see a limited amount of worthy credit for that experience. Hwever, with that being stated, measuring such experience requires that it be done by someone with enormous knowledge of the military environment around the world. This would be someone at the mid to senior officer ranks, with thirty-years of experience or more. The civilian world is tougher to measure due to the eclectic nature of the private sector.
