Goals of the WebinarGoals of the Webinar
• Provide background and information on the new tools and technology part of O*NET
• Show how O*NET Online, Career Voyages, and Career InfoNet incorporate tools and technology
• Indicate future plans for tools and technology
3
Tools and TechnologyTools and Technology• New addition to O*NET system
– Part of O*NET Content Model
• Identifies technology competencies for occupations
• Includes: – tools – information technology – software– equipment– machines
• Focuses on the in-demand occupations
4
Why T2?Why T2?• Identify the Tools and Technology (T2)
workers must use for optimal functioning in a high-performance workplace
• This is what employers refer to as “Hard Skills”
• Emphasis placed on cutting edge technologies and emerging workplace practices (not exhaustive)
5
How T2 Can Be Used - Identify How T2 Can Be Used - Identify Impact of InnovationImpact of Innovation
• Understand how tools and technology have changed occupations– Medical Records and Health Information Technicians
• Computer-based record keeping software indicates a radical change in skills required
– Paralegals and Legal Assistants• Increased use of software suites aimed at organizing and
preparing legal cases for litigation
– Chemists• T2s such as high-pressure liquid chromatography systems
and mass spectrometers are early indicators of the transformation to nanotechnology
6
How T2 Can Be Used - How T2 Can Be Used - WorkersWorkers
• Understand occupation and job requirements
• Identify education and training needs
• Develop resumes• Search occupations by software,
equipment, tool, and technology
7
How T2 Can Be Used - How T2 Can Be Used - EmployersEmployers
• Improve training needs assessment• Develop training program and curricula• Use training resources more efficiently• Enhance occupational searchers• Assist in job order creation• Help with resume evaluation• Enhance the job matching process• Perform more specific “skills gap” analysis• Create more robust, up-to-date
descriptions of occupations/industries
8
How T2 Can Be Used – How T2 Can Be Used – Education and TrainingEducation and Training
• Design educational and training programs that meet employer and worker needs
• Develop certifications and related programs
• Identify new technical skills/competencies and cutting-edge technologies used in the workplace
9
DevelopmentDevelopment
• Over 14,000 tools and technologies have been identified
• Organized into existing United Nations Standard Products and Services Code (UNSPSC) classification system– This system is a global standard
for business
10
Classification StructureClassification Structure• United Nations Standard Products and
Services Code (UNSPSC) (www.unspsc.org)– Open, global electronic commerce standard
that provides a logical framework for classifying goods and services
– Basis of international procurement processes, enabling businesses to market products and services more efficiently, and avoid developing a proprietary classification system
– Developed and maintained by the United Nations in partnership with Dun & Bradstreet
11
Classification StructureClassification Structure• UNSPSC is an ideal, hierarchical
classification system for T2– Segment
• Family– Class (group of commodities sharing a common
use or function)
» Commodity (group of substitute products and services)
* Business Function
12
Classification StructureClassification Structure
• O*NET T2 Classification– Class level
• Commodity Level– O*NET T2 Example Level
EXAMPLEEXAMPLE
– Class Level: Soldering, brazing, and welding machinery and supplies• Commodity Level: Blow Torches
– O*NET T2 Level: Acetylene torches
13
T2 DevelopmentT2 Development
• Internet-based data collection– Build on previous O*NET project tasks (i.e., task
development)– Trained analysts
• Strong proficiency in Internet searching procedures• Strong background and training in occupational
analysis
• Data classification• Quality control
14
T2 DevelopmentT2 Development
• First tier– Use occupational information to “scrape” the Web for T2s
• Occupational description, tasks, and “raw” task information– Successful in capturing objects central to occupation
performance– Produced the majority of T2s
• Second tier– Use industry terms and first-tier T2 examples – Use the UNSPSC classification system to identify potential
gaps or weak areas– Successful in capturing cutting-edge technologies; newer,
emerging T2s; and increases occupational coverage
15
T2 DevelopmentT2 Development
• Occupation Expert (OE) verification– Reviewed sample of occupations– High degree of overlap, consensus– OE additions at the T2 Example Level, not at the
Commodity Level
16
How has T2 been included in How has T2 been included in O*NET?O*NET?
• Focus on In-Demand Occupations (now 327 occupations)– High growth, high-demand occupations– Important to national security– Important to US economy– Emerging occupations
• Occupations have•94 per occupation (average)•Range of 13 to 300 per occupation

Future Plans for T2Future Plans for T2
• Continue development of T2 for in-demand occupations– DoL is working on the next set of 100
occupations --include engineering, architecture, technology, management, science, mathematical sciences.
• Investigate multiple methods of keeping T2 current– Customer input, industry review, new
webscraping techniques, expert review, transactional analysis
