1 Share of the army corporal role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the armed forces training and education officer 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.

Why

Why this move works

A army corporal role treats 10 of its required skills as things a armed forces training and education officer already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • give battle commands
  • lead military troops
  • maintain operational communications
  • manage troop deployment
  • military code
  • military combat techniques

What stands in the way is 1 required skill the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 21 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A army corporal role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a armed forces training and education officer background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held monitor military equipment use information skills
  • already held coordinate humanitarian aid missions communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held operate armoured fighting vehicles working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held train military troops communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held assess danger in risk areas information skills
  • already held give battle commands communication, collaboration and creativity

All 21 carried skills, including the 10 the army corporal role treats as required.

1 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

Knowledge gaps usually close through study. Practical skill gaps usually need something you can point at.

Note

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.
