This year, the Department of Workforce Development’s (DWD) updated Skill Explorer will help job seekers discover opportunities that fit their experience and abilities while navigating career paths more effectively.
Developed by DWD’s Bureau of Workforce Information and Technology Support (BWITS), Bureau of Job Service, and Office of IT Coordination, Skill Explorer allows job seekers to search for job openings based on their acquired skills. It uses advanced technology to analyze skill sets and produces occupational categories spanning various industries. Users can explore careers by experience level, career groupings, or education level. Employers, educators, students, parents, and others can also benefit.
Enhanced features include comprehensive career planning support, such as a job center locator, education resources, a certification resource locator, and links to resources like apprenticeship opportunities and internships through WisConnect.
