1 Share of the medical laboratory technology vocational teacher role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the digital literacy teacher 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 medical laboratory technology vocational teacher role treats 20 of its required skills as things a digital literacy teacher already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • adapt teaching to student's capabilities
  • adapt training to labour market
  • apply intercultural teaching strategies
  • apply teaching strategies
  • assess students
  • assessment processes

What stands in the way is 6 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 23 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A medical laboratory technology vocational teacher role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a digital literacy teacher background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held adapt training to labour market information skills
  • already held assign homework management skills
  • already held manage student relationships communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held instructional strategies education
  • already held adapt teaching to student's capabilities communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held teamwork principles generic programmes and qualifications

All 23 carried skills, including the 20 the medical laboratory technology vocational teacher role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 23 missing skills fall into 6 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.

12 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

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.
