46.6/ 100

1 Share of the homeopath role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the dietitian 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 homeopath role treats 10 of its required skills as things a dietitian already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • accept own accountability
  • advise on healthcare users' informed consent
  • apply context specific clinical competences
  • comply with legislation related to health care
  • comply with quality standards related to healthcare practice
  • ensure safety of healthcare users

What stands in the way is 8 required skills 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 20 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A homeopath role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a dietitian background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held dietetics health and welfare
  • already held record healthcare users' billing information information skills
  • already held supervision of persons business, administration and law
  • already held refer healthcare users assisting and caring
  • already held pathology health and welfare
  • already held advise on healthcare users' informed consent communication, collaboration and creativity

All 20 carried skills, including the 10 the homeopath role treats as required.

Table 3

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 14 missing skills fall into 5 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered below in the order worth working in: the areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the supplementary ones.

3 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.
