1 Share of the snowboard instructor role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the outdoor activities instructor 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 snowboard instructor role treats 4 of its required skills as things a outdoor activities instructor already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • apply risk management in sports
  • demonstrate when teaching
  • give constructive feedback
  • plan sports instruction programme

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 9 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A snowboard instructor role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a outdoor activities instructor background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held skateboard services
  • already held plan sports instruction programme management skills
  • already held work with different target groups communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held motivate in sports management skills
  • already held apply risk management in sports information skills
  • already held demonstrate when teaching communication, collaboration and creativity

All 9 carried skills, including the 4 the snowboard instructor 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.
