Abstract: An improved mechanism is provided for presenting and navigating bookmarks in a set of electronic reading material (ERM). In one implementation, when a portion of an ERM is displayed, a graphical element, which represents the contents of the ERM, is also displayed. A current location indicator and one or more bookmark indicators are further displayed on or within proximity of the graphical element to show where, within the ERM, the currently displayed portion is located and where bookmarks are located. This provides a useful graphical overview to a user. In addition, the mechanism may facilitate navigation to a bookmark by enabling a user to select one of the bookmark indicators to navigate directly to that bookmark. The mechanism may also enable a user to navigate sequentially from bookmark to bookmark using a previous bookmark control and/or a next bookmark control. With these capabilities, bookmark presentation and navigation are improved.

Abstract: A method is provided for displaying to a candidate one or more candidate-views. Specifically, a candidate may be presented with one or more jobs based on the candidate's possessed proficiencies. Tools and resources are provided to assess and increase a candidate's possessed proficiencies. A method is also provided for displaying, to an employer, employer-views. Specifically, employer-views may be used to define the required proficiencies for a job, find qualified candidates, and retrieve detailed candidate profile information comprising possessed proficiencies for one or more skills. Furthermore, a method is provided for displaying to an educator one or more educator-views. Specifically, a ranked list of skills may be presented to educators based on the number of candidates that may further their respective careers by increasing a particular proficiency. Educator-views may also provide educators with a space to post course information and materials.
