Skill shortages are a major issue in the UK and arise because there are not enough people with particular skills to meet demand. The Open University estimates that skill shortages cost the UK £2bn a year in higher salaries, recruitment costs and temporary staffing bills. They can also significantly hamper growth. According to OECD research, the UK could boost its productivity by 5 per cent if it reduced the level of skill mismatch to OECD best practice levels.The whole world is looking for alternative, efficient and affordable education. Bill Gates summarised the problem nicely: "I read more than my share of textbooks," Gates says. "But it's a pretty limited way to learn something. Even the best text can't figure out which concepts you understand and which ones you need more help with." Software can be used to create a much more dynamic learning experience.Our aim at Knowledge Officer is to create the shortest and most efficient path to employment and career progression. Our e-learning platform technology builds a personalised learning path, helping the user to learn with purpose to achieve their career goals. We use a three-step process 1) Skills - artificial intelligence analyses job descriptions from the best companies in the world to pick out the most common and important skills. 2) Learning - we source the highest quality learning materials from around the web, create challenges, track your progress and allow you to compete with your friends - proven ways to learn more effectively. 3) Opportunities - once you've learned core skills, we'll match you with jobs and opportunities based on your criteria.Our solution understands the skills required for each job title on the market based on data from millions of job posts and public company profiles and finds the best-curated content that helps people gain those skills.This project will conduct challenging research to extend our technology so that given a job title or a career goal, and a location or industry, will list the required skills for the goal in this specific location and industry and also output a recommended learning path to get those skills. Working with early adopter partners, and learning professionals, the learning path will be further personalised/tuned based on a series of assessments the user undertakes during onboarding and while going through our existing learning journey.

技能短缺是英国的一个主要问题，因为没有足够的人拥有特定的技能来满足需求。开放大学估计，技能短缺导致英国每年损失20亿英镑，包括更高的工资、招聘成本和临时人员费用。它们还可能严重阻碍增长。根据经合组织（OECD）的研究，如果英国将技能不匹配水平降低到经合组织最佳实践水平，其生产率可以提高5%。整个世界都在寻找替代、高效和负担得起的教育。比尔·盖茨很好地总结了这个问题：“我读的书比我读的书多，”盖茨说。“但这是一个非常有限的学习方法。即使是最好的文本也不能弄清楚你理解了哪些概念，哪些你需要更多的帮助。“软件可以用来创造一个更有活力的学习体验。我们的知识官的目标是创造最短和最有效的就业和职业发展路径。我们的电子学习平台技术建立了个性化的学习路径，帮助用户有目的地学习，以实现他们的职业目标。我们使用三步流程1）技能-人工智能分析世界上最好的公司的职位描述，以挑选出最常见和最重要的技能。2)学习-我们从网络上获取最高质量的学习材料，创造挑战，跟踪您的进度，并让您与朋友竞争-经过验证的方法来更有效地学习。3)机会-一旦您学会了核心技能，我们将根据您的标准为您匹配工作和机会。我们的解决方案基于数百万个职位和上市公司简介的数据，了解市场上每个职位所需的技能，并找到最佳-策划的内容，帮助人们获得这些技能。这个项目将进行具有挑战性的研究，以扩大我们的技术，使给定的职位或职业目标，以及位置或行业，将列出该特定位置和行业的目标所需的技能，并输出获得这些技能的推荐学习路径。与早期采用者合作伙伴和学习专业人士合作，学习路径将根据用户在入职期间和通过我们现有的学习旅程进行的一系列评估进一步个性化/调整。
