in the DOT. With the development and release of the Occupational 
Information Network (O*NET) system, some modifications were needed to 
make the OCR form correlate more closely to the information in the 
O*NET system. The OCR form, with these modifications, has been renamed 
the Occupational Code Assignment (OCA) form.
