Professional Intelligence · In development
People spend years learning, solving problems, and producing work that matters. When it comes time to explain what they can actually do, much of that experience is hard to point to. A credential names a subject. A job title names a role. Neither shows the work itself.
APG is developing Professional Intelligence to help people keep hold of that evidence, understand what it supports, and consider where to go next. It is intended to run alongside the course, the job, or the job search someone is already doing. People do the work and make the decisions.
The platform remains under development and is not open for public use.
See an illustrative journeyProfessional Vision is the direction you want to explore and the reasons it matters to you. It can change as you learn more. It orients the questions; it does not establish what you can do.
The developing experience starts with evidence of work, adds researched external context, and helps a person consider choices.
A professional profile built from actual work and the evidence behind it. As people document their accomplishments, the profile becomes a clearer picture of what they have done, which capabilities they can substantiate, and where their experience might take them.
Submitting an artifact does not prove a competency by itself. The platform aims to preserve that distinction and give people a record they can continue to build and carry with them.
A person is exploring Technical Project Management work. The goal is self-reported and can change.
A synthetic project plan stands in for work completed outside APG. It includes milestones and a risk log. The example calls for the work's source, date, context, and the person's stated contribution.
Observed: milestones and a risk log appear in the example. Self-reported: the person's contribution. Inferred: possible experience organizing project work. Unknown: independently established authorship and professional proficiency.
Compare the evidence with researched TPM requirements, keeping sources and observation dates visible. Stored vacancies are research records; current availability needs checking.
The person chooses whether to improve the evidence, pursue learning, or investigate an opportunity. Applications, communications, and other consequential actions remain theirs.
This illustration explains the intended relationship between a goal, evidence, research, and a choice. It makes no claim of verified competence or an employment outcome.
Finding the right opportunity, understanding a professional network, and keeping track of conversations are related research problems. APG has built three local, owner-operated applications that address parts of them.
Organizes researched job opportunities and leaves the review and the application decision with the person doing the searching. Application statuses are owner-recorded; they do not confirm employer receipt.
Helps make sense of a professional network, keeping what a model suggests separate from what a person actually decides to pursue. It supports review of network research; contacting someone remains a human action.
Keeps a record of outreach and follow-up, so nothing gets lost between conversations. External messages are sent by the person; a local record alone does not confirm delivery or a reply.
These are working local tools for the owner. Their bounded research and synthesis capabilities provide a foundation for development. The fuller professional profile, connected navigation experience, and secure access for other people are still being developed.
APG plans to run a small, free pilot with people who need practical help navigating the employment market. The goal is to give a few people real help while learning what has to change before this is useful to anyone else. There is no fixed timeline and no promised outcome, only the same approach APG brings to every implementation: start small, pay attention to what actually happens, and adjust.
The pilot is planned. Enrollment is not open.
Professional Intelligence is still being developed. APG's research and engineering work provide a view into the thinking behind the platform and the problems we are exploring.
