1 Share of the civil enforcement officer role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the street warden 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.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 23 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A civil enforcement officer role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a street warden background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held issue fines assisting and caring
  • already held assist emergency services communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held instruct public communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held regulate traffic assisting and caring
  • already held first response health and welfare
  • already held apply first response assisting and caring

All 23 carried skills, including the 9 the civil enforcement officer role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

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.
