1 Share of the further education teacher role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the corporate trainer 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 further education teacher role treats 13 of its required skills as things a corporate trainer already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • adapt teaching to target group
  • adapt training to labour market
  • adult education
  • apply intercultural teaching strategies
  • apply teaching strategies
  • assess students

What stands in the way is 11 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 20 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A further education teacher role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a corporate trainer background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held training subject expertise education
  • already held promote education course communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held deliver online training communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held teach digital literacy communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held adapt teaching to target group communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held adult education education

All 20 carried skills, including the 13 the further education teacher role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 26 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.

3 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.
