search_certificationsread-onlyWhich certification is this prose name? Start here for any plain question — a trade, field, job, skill, or company in everyday words. Returns candidates with ids, issuers, and source basis — candidates rather than a single guess when the name is ambiguous; the ids feed the other certification tools.
get_certificationread-onlyEverything held about one certification: issuer and issuer domain, occupations served, exam and renewal requirements, education-or-experience routes, Credential Engine registry identity where held, and the basis and source URL for the claim.
certifications_for_occupationread-onlyWhat certifications serve this occupation? SOC-keyed lookup (dashed SOC accepted with or without the O*NET .00 suffix).
occupations_for_certificationread-onlyWhat occupations does this certification serve?
related_certificationsread-onlyWhat else serves the same occupation? Traverses on SOC only — a certification sharing solely an instructional program (CIP) is not related (contract § 4).
certifications_for_programread-onlyBroad academic cross-reference by instructional program (CIP). A deliberately broader, lower-precision question than an occupation lookup — never its peer (contract § 4).
list_issuersread-onlyThe issuing organizations, optionally filtered by a name query.
resolve_termread-onlyWhere does a word place in the KSA model? The KSA Dictionary is the shared vocabulary that defines the terms a learner uses to assert what they know, do, and are — and the terms a learning offering uses to express what it comprises — so both sides resolve to the same identifiers, never spelling matches. Answers from three linked layers (governed lexicon, O*NET content model, WordNet-derived index)
expand_termread-onlyWhat is this word, upward? Walks the WordNet is-a (hypernym) chain meaning to parent meaning, from the word's KSA-mapped sense toward its broader categories, so every step stays in the sense it started in. Each step carries its definition (gloss) and synonyms.
get_dictionary_summaryread-onlyWhat does the KSA Dictionary hold? The words and meanings it places, the governed terms, the O*NET content-model elements, the link words and the CIP-SOC crosswalk, each with its own version and build date where the layer publishes one, and an honest not held where it does not. Read as published at boot, never computed at request time, and never a word lookup: for one word use resolve_term. The wo
crosswalk_coderead-onlyWhat does this code cross to? Auto-detects the family — dotted CIP (52.0201) or dashed SOC (11-1021, O*NET .00 suffix accepted) — and answers the other family's codes and titles from the federal CIP-SOC crosswalk.
compare_program_checklistsread-onlyCompare what a program takes at several institutions: for each IPEDS UNITID, that institution's published checklist for the program (requirement groups, items, published credit strings — the work effort) beside its published tuition and fee policy (the cost). Schedule is stated not held. Nothing is summed or computed by the service; an institution, checklist, or cost the catalogs do not hold is st
find_institutionread-onlyWhich institution is this? A name fragment or an IPEDS UNITID answers with the institution's identity, sector, identifiers with their sources, and how many programs, checklists, and learning units its published catalog holds here. A state lists that state's institutions by name; with no name and no state, the answer is the states that hold institutions, each with its count. Each row names its curr
programs_for_institutionread-onlyWhat programs does this institution publish? Award, credential class, CIP, the published credit figure verbatim, catalog edition, the captured page each came from, and the checklist ids to pass to get_checklist. Each row names its current FORM's wording source: source_url, capture_file, catalog_year and source_catalog_name are that one source's, never the record's whole span. A row whose record ho
get_checklistread-onlyWhat does this award require? One checklist: its requirement groups (every header and full item count), each group's items with published credit strings, alternatives, and — where an item resolved to a course — that course's own code, title, and published credits, attributed to the course. Items come in pages across the groups; the answer states items_total and next_item_offset. Every row names th
learning_unitsread-onlyWhat courses does this institution publish? Filter by subject abbreviation, course code (spaces and case ignored), or title words; each course carries its published credit string verbatim (ranges stay ranges), edition, and the captured page. Each row names its current FORM's wording source: source_url, capture_file, catalog_year and source_catalog_name are that one source's, never the record's who
get_institutionread-onlyEverything held about one institution: its identity row, identifiers, addresses, websites, accreditations, relationships, identity history, published costs and calendar dates, each table under its own name, with counts of its programs, courses, checklists, catalogs, policies and agreements and the service that lists each. Contacts name people and are not served. Each row names its current FORM's w
find_catalogsread-onlyWhich published catalog editions are held for this institution? Each catalog's edition year, format and source. Answers none held when the build holds none. Each row names its current FORM's wording source: source_url, capture_file, catalog_year and source_catalog_name are that one source's, never the record's whole span. A row whose record holds more than one form or more than one source also car
get_catalogread-onlyOne catalog edition: its row, the institutions that use it (and whom it is shared from), and how many programs it holds.

A row whose record holds more than one form or more than one source also carries version_count, source_count, fi
find_programsread-onlyWhich programs match these words, across institutions? Program or award words (optionally one institution's UNITID) answer with each program's award, CIP, published credit figure verbatim, edition, source page and institution. Each row names its current FORM's wording source: source_url, capture_file, catalog_year and source_catalog_name are that one source's, never the record's whole span. A row
get_programread-onlyOne program whole: its row, identifiers, offerings (campus resolved), its institution, and the checklists that lead to its award — pass one to get_checklist. Each row names its current FORM's wording source: source_url, capture_file, catalog_year and source_catalog_name are that one source's, never the record's whole span. A row whose record holds more than one form or more than one source also ca
get_learning_unitread-onlyOne course whole: its row, prerequisites and corequisites, aliases, terms offered, articulation statements and comparable members — each linked course resolved or stated unresolved, never guessed — plus the transfer frameworks it maps to. Each row names its current FORM's wording source: source_url, capture_file, catalog_year and source_catalog_name are that one source's, never the record's whole
find_policiesread-onlyWhich academic policies does this institution publish (transfer credit, prior learning, tuition and fees …)? Optional words narrow them. Answers none held when the build holds none.

A row whose record holds more than one form or more

Optional award words or a program id narrow them; pass one to get_checklist.

A row whose record holds more than one form or more than one source also ca
get_agreementread-onlyOne agreement: its row, its parties (organizations resolved), and the pathways, comparability bundles and checklists that cite it. Signatories name people and are not served.

Optional receiving institution UNITID, agreement id, or a learning unit that appears as a source or substitute. Answers none held when the build holds none. Each row names its current FORM's wording source: source_url, capture_file, catalog_year and source_catalog_name are that one source's, never the record's whole span. A row whose
get_comparabilityread-onlyOne comparability bundle: its row (credits awarded published beside any parse), the receiving institution, and its source and substitute courses, each resolved or stated unresolved. Each row names its current FORM's wording source: source_url, capture_file, catalog_year and source_catalog_name are that one source's, never the record's whole span. A row whose record holds more than one form or more

A row whose record holds more than one form or more than one source also carries version_count, source_count, first_editi
checklists_requiring_learning_unitread-onlyWhich checklists require this course? Each requirement item that resolved to it, with its checklist id, award and group heading. Items that did not resolve to a course are never guessed into this list. Each row names its current FORM's wording source: source_url, capture_file, catalog_year and source_catalog_name are that one source's, never the record's whole span. A row whose record holds more t
search_programs_and_learning_unitsread-onlyWhich programs or courses match, and where? Words, a subject (CIP family, or unknown), a course subject prefix, a credential class, an award as published, and a school's state, city, type or UNITID answer with product cards (name, award, length and college when held, school and city, subject, checklist size, and what the program leads to through the CIP-SOC crosswalk) and the counts to refine by.
get_courseshelf_summaryread-onlyWhat does CourseShelf hold? From the records published with the build, read as published and never computed: per catalog area, how many institutions have loaded content and how many records were loaded; every table's row count; organizations by sector; the census of the whole index with its verdicts; and per-state counts and per-school verdicts where the build publishes them. Anything not publishe
comparability_for_learning_unitread-onlyWhere does this course land at other schools, and what lands on it (exams included)? The published transfer rules for one course: the rules CourseShelf holds first (a school's own catalog, CourseAtlas), then CourseAtlas's direct rules read live. Each rule names its source authority, source_url and band; comparable, never equivalent. What lands on a course is answered from the held rules only. Each
find_transitionsread-onlyWhere can this occupation lead? For a SOC code: destination occupations, each with its typed roads (published by O*NET or by a credential serving both; mapped through the CIP-SOC crosswalk), each road with its source, basis and its class's karat; the bridges (credentials with their exam, education and experience conditions, and programs with checklists nearest the state given); and demand as O*NET
compare_destinationsread-onlyLine up 2 to 6 destination occupations side by side from one occupation: the bridge size (credential only, or the program bridges' awards as published), O*NET demand (median wage, outlook, bright outlook) and the evidence classes of the roads. Each cell is copied or counted, never scored.
will_my_credits_transferread-onlyWill my prior credits apply as credit at my target school? For each thing a person holds (an AP, CLEP or IB exam and its score, or a course taken at a school) the target school's own published transfer rules (CourseAtlas) and CollegeBoard's reported AP policy, in three states: covered (a rule carries it to a course at the target), missing (the target's own rule needs a higher score), unknown (no r
assemble_my_formal_educationread-onlyRead a person's transcripts into their evidence package: each file's text and status, its courses and exams as rows, and the items will_my_credits_transfer takes (courses as { unitid or school, code }; AP, CLEP and IB exams with a score). Ask the person for each transcript and the school it came from. Several transcripts are read side by side. A school several schools' names fit is answered with t
assemble_my_work_and_credentialsread-onlyRead a person's resume, LinkedIn export, certificates, military records and apprenticeship records into their evidence package: each file's text and status, and the credential signals the certificate, military and apprenticeship documents carry. Ask the person for each file. This assembles; the Selfie is my_selfie_ksa_view. Nothing is stored: the answer returns the package for the agent to keep.
assert_my_life_experiencesread-onlyRecord what a person says they have done outside school and work (family, clubs, sports, faith, travel, self-taught projects, challenges) in their evidence package, each placed in a Selfie dimension by the KSA classifier or left unresolved, never defaulted. These are the person's own statements, kept apart from formal education. Nothing is stored: the answer returns the package for the agent to ke
my_selfie_ksa_viewread-onlyThe person's Selfie from their evidence package: the seven dimensions (skills, knowledge, abilities and more) as the evidence shows them, each item citing the file, the occupation O*NET describes, or the life experience it came from, plus what could not be placed. It mirrors, for the person to confirm, refine or reject; it is never a grade or a credit decision. The person's placements and dismissa
draft_my_claimsread-onlyDraft the credit claims a person's evidence supports, from their package (after my_selfie_ksa_view): each claim quotes the document it rests on. They are drafts for the person to keep, affirm or decline (set each claim's confidence to ratified, affirmed or declined in the package); the AI never affirms a claim. Give the school they are thinking of as `school` so its catalog is made ready for sugge
suggest_credit_for_my_learningread-onlyWhere is a person in the program they are aiming for, and what may their learning meet? Name the program with `checklist_id` (find it with find_programs at that school) and the answer is that program's checklist line by line: the lines their claims may meet, each with the claim, how well it is corroborated and every link cited; the lines a transfer answer in their package already covers; and the l
find_my_majorread-onlyWhat should I study? For a person's own words — an interest, a subject or a job — or a job code (SOC), the majors that answer. Each major carries its plain definition (NCES verbatim), the award levels it is conferred at (IPEDS AWLEVEL, each completers flag in its own field and never summed), how many schools offer it nationally, the jobs it leads to through the federal CIP-SOC crosswalk, and its r
compare_my_majorread-onlyHow do these majors differ? Two to five majors at one level, side by side: definition, the schools offering it, the jobs and their outlook from O*NET, and earnings at 1 and 5 years with debt — given as the LOWEST-TO-HIGHEST RANGE across the schools that publish them, with the number of schools stated. A range of school figures, never a median computed from them. A six-digit major's earnings come f
find_my_schoolread-onlyWhere can I study this? A match-up, not a dump: for a major and a level, the schools that award it, ranked by how many of the person's own criteria each one meets, with met, not met and not testable kept as three different results — a school that does not publish a fact is not testable on it, never failed. Each criterion names the source that decided it, each school carries its own program, award,
compare_my_schoolread-onlyWhich of these schools is better for me? Two to five schools, one major and a level, side by side: program and award, credits required verbatim, requirements compared line by line, and — when the person offers their courses and exam scores — what each school's own published rules would count them for, with GoldCheck's states and reasons carried through unchanged. Credits left is reduced only by it
find_my_best_pathwayread-onlyWhat's my best way there? For a goal — a major or a job — and what the person brings (courses, exams, their Competency Selfie, work and life experience), the paths to it, each saying WHY it ranks where it does and naming the figures that moved it. The steps appear only where an agreement or pathway document states them, never assembled from award levels alone. Every item the person brought is mark
