animal trainertoanimal osteopath
A animal trainer already meets 78% of what the animal osteopath role asks for. The move turns on 5 required skills not yet in the profile.
This move: 28.1 of 100 · adjacent
1 Share of the animal osteopath role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the animal trainer profile. Required skills count in full, supplementary skills at 0.35. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. 2 Combines what is missing with how specialised it is, so a gap of general skills scores easier than the same number of narrow ones.

How this record was compiled
Both occupations are taken from ESCO, which lists the skills and knowledge each occupation is expected to have and marks every one required or optional. Nothing here is a prediction about hiring, and nothing here knows that a particular employer wants a particular certificate. Treat Table 3 as a starting point for your own research rather than a syllabus. The full method states what these figures can and cannot tell you.
