Abstract
The APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR ADVANCEMENT PATH BENCHMARKING (“APB”) provides mechanisms allowing advancement seekers to identify, map out, structure and interact with various advancement paths to the seeker'"'"'s goals. In one embodiment, the seekers are career advancement seekers, and the APB provides mechanisms allowing the seeker to explore various career paths and opportunities. In one embodiment, the APB interacts with a statistical engine, which allows seekers to map their experiences to various advancement states in the statistical engines state structure. By so doing, it allows seeker to explore multiple paths based on various criteria, and allows seekers to plan their career goals. In the process, the APB obtains and tracks information from a number of seekers allowing any one seeker to benchmark attributes of their advancement path against other seekers. In other embodiments, the seekers may be students wishing to advance their academic advancements. In yet other embodiments, the seekers are financial seekers who wish to achieve their financial goals.
