1 Share of the dean of faculty role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the international student exchange coordinator 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 dean of faculty role treats 6 of its required skills as things a international student exchange coordinator already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • assist in the organisation of school events
  • cooperate with education professionals
  • education administration
  • manage educational institution's administration
  • provide education management support
  • use office systems

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 7 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A dean of faculty role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a international student exchange coordinator background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held manage educational institution's administration management skills
  • already held provide education management support management skills
  • already held education administration business, administration and law
  • already held use office systems management skills
  • already held cooperate with education professionals communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held assist in the organisation of school events management skills

All 7 carried skills, including the 6 the dean of faculty role treats as required.

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.
