1 Share of the marine engineering drafter role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the aerospace engineering drafter 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 marine engineering drafter role treats 16 of its required skills as things a aerospace engineering drafter already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • CADD software
  • CAE software
  • ICT software specifications
  • create technical plans
  • design drawings
  • engineering principles

What stands in the way is 2 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 35 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A marine engineering drafter role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a aerospace engineering drafter background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held stealth technology services
  • already held synthetic natural environment natural sciences, mathematics and statistics
  • already held use CADD software working with computers
  • already held manual draughting techniques arts and humanities
  • already held archive documentation related to work information skills
  • already held guidance, navigation and control engineering, manufacturing and construction

All 35 carried skills, including the 16 the marine engineering drafter role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 34 missing skills fall into 11 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.

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.
