1 Share of the irrigation system installer role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the terrazzo setter 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 irrigation system installer role treats 7 of its required skills as things a terrazzo setter already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • apply proofing membranes
  • follow health and safety procedures in construction
  • inspect construction supplies
  • transport construction supplies
  • use measurement instruments
  • use safety equipment in construction

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 13 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A irrigation system installer role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a terrazzo setter background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held apply proofing membranes constructing
  • already held transport construction supplies handling and moving
  • already held order construction supplies communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held calculate needs for construction supplies information skills
  • already held process incoming construction supplies information skills
  • already held inspect construction supplies information skills

All 13 carried skills, including the 7 the irrigation system installer role treats as required.

5 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

Knowledge gaps usually close through study. Practical skill gaps usually need something you can point at.

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.
