1 Share of the social pedagogue role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the sexual violence counsellor 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 social pedagogue role treats 30 of its required skills as things a sexual violence counsellor already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • accept own accountability
  • adolescent psychological development
  • apply quality standards in social services
  • apply socially just working principles
  • assess social service users' situation
  • assess the development of youth

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 30 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A social pedagogue role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a sexual violence counsellor background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held psychological theories social sciences, journalism and information
  • already held supervision of persons business, administration and law
  • already held support traumatised children assisting and caring
  • already held counselling methods health and welfare
  • already held adolescent psychological development social sciences, journalism and information
  • already held cooperate at inter-professional level communication, collaboration and creativity

All 30 carried skills, including the 30 the social pedagogue role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 30 missing skills fall into 7 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.
