Where a chromatographer can go next

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

Chromatographers apply the corresponding chromatography techniques (such as gas, liquid or ion exchange techniques) to identify and analyse samples' chemical compounds. They calibrate and maintain the chromatography machinery and prepare the equipment and solutions. Chromatographers may also develop and apply new chromatography methods according to samples and chemical compounds that need to be analysed.

Note

How these figures were compiled

Coverage is the share of the target role’s weighted skill requirement a chromatographer 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.
