Not sure if it's apples to apples, but I had a friend who was a
librarian at a small school district. She was told that since she was
employed at the school they required continuing ed and she had to get
her masters. She got her Masters. School said that she was now
overqualified and they couldn't employ her for that position anymore.
So I think that in that case, she was required to get education without
any compensation.

Funny, most of the guys never take advantage of them though.
We experimented on having applicants view training videos prior to the
interview. That went better before covid.
But if you care about employees, you will spend money to train them.
That is the best policy.
If they leave you for a better job, well good for them, and you did
some good in the world today.

So, can an employee be required to gain education or knowledge off the
clock?
We are looking at a new hire, but there are certain things I want to
require of them, knowledge wise, some of which requires reading or
watching a video.
Can you require an employee obtain a knowlege set without compensation
directly? It's no different than required knowlege ahead of time to me.
No issue with it being pay increase based. ie learn X, another dollar
an hour.
