Description

@karenlpassmore

Take a closer look at https://www.onetonline.org/help/onet/ and determine if we should use this for the baseline taxonomy.

"Every occupation requires a unique mix of knowledges, skills, abilities, activities, and tasks. These defining features are structured within the O*NET Content Model, which organizes information into a detailed taxonomy with multiple levels of granularity.

For example, within the Work Activities hierarchy, more than 19,000 task statements are linked to over 2,000 detailed work activities, which are organized into 325 intermediate activities and ultimately nested into 41 generalized activities.

Explore the interactive Content Model to see the comprehensive range of occupational information and their organizing structures."

The Content Model partitions descriptors into multiple domains (e.g., Worker Characteristics, Worker Requirements, Occupational Requirements, Experience Requirements, Occupation‐specific Requirements) O*NET Resource Center

ONET uses the ONET-SOC taxonomy (aligned with the SOC system) to define occupations - the 2019 SOC taxonomy is used. (O*NET OnLine)

Data collection is multi-method: surveys of incumbents, expert input, job postings, web research, machine learning/NLP methods. (O*NET Resource Center)

It's available via download and via web services API (RESTful, JSON/XML) for integration. (services.onetcenter.org)
