assistant outdoor animatortoenvironmental education officer
A assistant outdoor animator already meets 22% of what the environmental education officer role asks for. The move turns on 10 required skills not yet in the profile.
This move: 71.7 of 100 · substantial
1 Share of the environmental education officer role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the assistant outdoor animator 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.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 4 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A environmental education officer role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a assistant outdoor animator background worth leading with.
- already held monitor interventions in the outdoors communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held manage outdoor resources information skills
- already held implement risk management for outdoors information skills
- already held animate in the outdoors communication, collaboration and creativity
All 4 carried skills, including the 4 the environmental education officer role treats as required.

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.
