Where a biochemistry technician can go next

5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a biochemistry technician already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.

Biochemistry technicians provide technical assistance in researching, analysing and testing the reactions caused by chemicals in living organisms. They use laboratory equipment to help develop or improve chemical-based products and also collect and analyse data for experiments, compile reports and maintain laboratory stock.

Fig. 2 — the 5 nearest destinations from biochemistry technician. Distance from the centre is how much retraining the move takes; the figure on each is how much of that role a biochemistry technician already covers. All 5 are listed in the tables below.
  • 70% and above · short step
  • 50 to 70% · real move
  • Below 50% · substantial retraining

Note

How these figures were compiled

Coverage is the share of the target role’s weighted skill requirement a biochemistry technician already meets, counting required skills in full and supplementary ones at 0.35. It is directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. Every entry above opens the full comparison for that move: what carries over, what is missing, and where to start. The full method.
