1 Share of the ICT system developer role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the ICT change and configuration manager 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 ICT system developer role treats 6 of its required skills as things a ICT change and configuration manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • computer programming
  • develop automated migration methods
  • digital systems
  • integrated development environment software
  • migrate existing data
  • tools for software configuration management

What stands in the way is 14 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 14 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A ICT system developer role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a ICT change and configuration manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held develop automated migration methods management skills
  • already held design cloud architecture communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held integrated development environment software information and communication technologies (icts)
  • already held tools for software configuration management information and communication technologies (icts)
  • already held Apache Maven information and communication technologies (icts)
  • already held Puppet (tools for software configuration management) information and communication technologies (icts)

All 14 carried skills, including the 6 the ICT system developer role treats as required.

Table 3

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 83 missing skills fall into 8 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.

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.
