Locate O*NET-SOC occupations using military codes, with the updated MOC crosswalk.
Users of other occupational coding systems can find matching O*NET-SOC occupations through OnLine's Crosswalk Search feature. The crosswalk data for the Military Occupational Classification (MOC) has been updated from the latest release (April 2008) by the Department of Defense. Over 7,500 MOC occupations are linked to related O*NET-SOC occupations to help transitioning military personnel locate appropriate civilian jobs.
Use Job Zones to browse O*NET occupations.
OnLine's new Browse by Job Zone feature allows users to find O*NET occupations based on the amount of preparation that can lead to successful job performance. Occupations have been sorted into five Job Zones based on similar levels of vocational preparation. Select one of the five Job Zones to see a listing of occupations with similar levels of education, experience, and training.

Use the new Tools and Technology Search to discover In-Demand occupations.
OnLine's new search tool allows users to identify In-Demand occupations whose workers may use related groups of machines, equipment, tools, or software for optimal functioning in a high performance workplace. Users can type in a specific tool or technology to see real world "examples" obtained from the business and education community, along with relevant occupations.
Visit the Tools & Technology Search page to explore this new feature.
Learn about cutting-edge Tools and Technology used in In-Demand occupations.
Tools and Technology (T2) data provides information on machines, equipment, tools, and software that workers may use for optimal functioning in a high performance workplace. The database has recently been updated with information on more than 50 additional occupations for a total of 317 updated In-Demand occupations. Emphasis is placed on cutting edge technologies and emerging workplace practices. Specific examples of tools and technology used within each occupation are organized into a standardized taxonomy (i.e., the United Nations Standard Products and Service Code - UNSPSC), allowing for cross-occupational comparisons and analysis. More information on this taxonomy is available from the UNSPSC web site
. The complete T2 data files can be downloaded from the O*NET Resource Center.
We welcome feedback on the T2 database. We accept suggestions for new tools and technologies via our T2 feedback process. Suggestions will be considered for a future update of the T2 database.
Look for the "Tools & Technology" section of the Summary, Details, or Custom Report, or visit the Tools & Technology Search page. A listing of occupations with T2 data is available.
