* '''Career and education goal''' involves searching for credentials that best meet their career goals

'''Discussion:''' EOCred: thread title  [https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-eocred-schema/2018May/thread.html thread from May 2018].

==Proposal==
Schema.org has a type for [http://schema.org/JobPosting JobPosting] and has in draft a proposal for [http://pending.webschemas.org/Occupation Occupation]; these both have the properties [http://schema.org/educationRequirements educationRequirements] "Educational background needed for the position or Occupation," and [http://schema.org/qualifications qualifications] "Specific qualifications required for this role." Extending the range of these properties to include Educational Occupational Credential would allow searchers to find those Job postings and Occupations that require a certain credential. Other properties of Job Posting or Occupation, such as [http://pending.schema.org/estimatedSalary estimatedSalary], [http://pending.schema.org/baseSalary baseSalary], [http://pending.schema.org/jobLocation jobLocation], [http://pending.schema.org/occupationalCategory occupationalCategory] etc. would then allow the analysis required.

'''Name:''' educationRequirements

'''Definition:''' Educational background needed for the position or Occupation

'''Expected Range:'''  EducationalOccupationalCredential, Text

'''Name:''' qualifications

'''Definition:''' Specific qualifications required for this role

'''Expected Range:'''  EducationalOccupationalCredential, Text
