1 Share of the dog breeder role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the bee breeder 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 dog breeder role treats 18 of its required skills as things a bee breeder already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • administer drugs to facilitate breeding
  • administer treatment to animals
  • animal nutrition
  • animal welfare legislation
  • apply animal hygiene practices
  • assist in transportation of animals

What stands in the way is 3 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 28 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A dog breeder role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a bee breeder background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held dispose of dead animals handling and moving
  • already held assess management of animals information skills
  • already held care for juvenile animals handling and moving
  • already held operate farm equipment working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held administer drugs to facilitate breeding handling and moving
  • already held administer treatment to animals handling and moving

All 28 carried skills, including the 18 the dog breeder role treats as required.

Table 3

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 9 missing skills fall into 5 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.

Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

2 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

Knowledge gaps usually close through study. Practical skill gaps usually need something you can point at.

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.
