The Projections Suite is the current effort to combine the three major projections systems into one unified product.

The Descriptor Module is a stand-alone system for generating descriptive labels for quantitative occupational data. It includes the ability to create an index of occuapational data series, as well as build a compare table to look at the intersections of two series.

This tool generates information on current supply, projected demand, skills gap and replacements for job requirements (knowledge, skills, and generalized work activities) by integrating short- and/or long-term occupational projections with the Department of Labor’s Occupational Information (O*NET) Network data. The system utilizes three components of O*NET’s content model, including:

• Knowledge: learned sets of facts and standards required by many work situations.
• Skills: learned capabilities that allow workers to master and perform the specific activities of their jobs.
• Generalized Work Activities: the types of tasks that are common to many jobs.

In general, the method links projected occupations with O*NET occupations and assigns the base and projected employment levels from the former to specific job requirements in the latter.
