What can you do on this screen?
On the Knowledge screen, you can create and manage the knowledge entries that are used for the skills in the task analysis in LEAD. In LEAD, we provide you with the Department of Labor O*NET Knowledge listing, based on the Department of Labor's (DOL) Standard Occupational Classification (SOC). These knowledge entries are already approved and used on the Competencies screens, so they cannot be deleted.

On the Knowledge screen, you can:
•Add a knowledge entry to the existing list by clicking on + New.

▪All Knowledge spreadsheet listing all knowledge entries with all the details in LEAD for each entry.
▪Related Materials Report that lists every initiative and place within the initiatives where the selected knowledge entry is cited or used.
oReplace one knowledge entry with another knowledge entry in the list.
Note: This will replace the knowledge entry everywhere it is used, including in approved initiatives! Hence, you will only see Replace , when you have the Replace privilege as part of your role.
oView the knowledge entry.
oTo approve the knowledge entry, select View and then select Approve.
Note: Knowledge entries are automatically approved when the initiative that cites/uses the knowledge entries is approved.
oEdit the knowledge entry, as long as it has not been approved.
oSelect Show History to review the changes made to the knowledge entry, including the user name and date/time of saved changes, and revert to an earlier saved revision.
oDelete the knowledge entry, if has not been cited in the task analysis of any initiative, or for a competency entry. Once you've selected OK to the confirmation message, an Undo button displays on the bottom left of the screen that allows you to revert the deletion.
If you can't find the knowledge entry you're looking for, enter a search term in the Find: field and select Search. The table will list all knowledge entries that contain your search term on the screen.
You can click on the column headers of each table to sort the knowledge entries by that column. Clicking on a column header again will reverse the sort. Clicking on the column header a third time will remove the sort. Small arrows in the column header let you know which way the data is currently sorted.
No
The number (No) column provides a sequential count of the entries, which is not attached to the entries themselves.
Title
The Title or text of the knowledge entry. Knowledge entries are used in the task analysis for tasks, subtasks, and steps (aka skills) to state the required facts, concepts, and principles to perform the skill. The identification of required knowledge is critical during the design phase because the sequencing of the learning event relies heavily on prerequisite relationships.
LEAD already contains the knowledge entries from the Department of Labor O*Net OnLine database, which are used on the Competencies tab. Feel free to add more specific knowledge entries, as needed, or even to expand on the existing ones.
When adding knowledge entries, concentrate on those that need to be trained to, and not all possible knowledge requirements.
Status
The current Status of the library item. Once the initiative that uses the library item is approved, then the library item is also approved. You can also approve a library item manually by viewing the item and then selecting Approve on the screen. You cannot approve a library item from the Edit screen.
