1 How much of what an environmental programme coordinator is expected to do is already part of an aquaculture environmental analyst’s work. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs, because moving into a speciality is not the same problem as moving out of one. 2 Every skill the environmental programme coordinator role is recorded as needing, required and optional together. What these numbers mean.

Why

Why this move works

An environmental programme coordinator role treats 11 of its required skills as things an aquaculture environmental analyst already does. You would walk in with these on day one.

analyse environmental data
assess environmental impact
carry out environmental audits
develop environmental policy
environmental design
environmental legislation

What stands in the way is 20 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 15 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. An environmental programme coordinator role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of an aquaculture environmental analyst background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area

Table 3 · What you may need to learn

The 41 missing skills fall into 12 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered in the order worth working in. Areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the optional ones. Nothing here is a verdict on you: it is a list of what this particular job asks for that your current one does not.

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.
