EXCLASS Job Description Module

EXCLASS is a prototype authoring tool and expert system for job description and classification, built for the Treasury Board of Canada for use by managers across the Canadian Public Service. The Job Description Module of EXCLASS supports the analysis and authoring of conceptual representations of job descriptions, which are then evaluated by the expert system component of EXCLASS. The conceptual representations are also used to generate textual job descriptions automatically.
