What is Knowledge to Work?
Knowledge to Work is a free, work-based learning tool that assists learners, job seekers, and incumbent workers with skill development through competency-based education.
We help people document the competencies they already know and learn new ones using free or low-cost learning resources.
Competencies are a combination of skills, abilities, and knowledge needed to perform a specific task within a job role.
We've aligned many learning resources for mastering competencies within occupations, credentials, apprenticeships, and more to help adult learners excel within their career.
