An Occupational Information System for the 21st Century: The Development of O Net

The Dictionary of Occupational Titles has been relied on for workforce development since its inception during the Great Depression. But as global competition and technological change created a new world of work, the Department of Labour realized that a more flexible and precise system was needed. Thus, the O*NET system, or the Occupational Information Network, was launched. Written by the developers of the O*NET system, this edited volume describes the research and methodology used in the development and validation of this ground-breaking system.
