40.7/ 100

1 Share of the golf instructor role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the horse riding instructor 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 golf instructor role treats 7 of its required skills as things a horse riding instructor already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • adapt teaching to target group
  • assess performance in sport events
  • demonstrate when teaching
  • develop sports programmes
  • give constructive feedback
  • instruct in sport

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 9 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A golf instructor role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a horse riding instructor background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held develop sports programmes management skills
  • already held assess performance in sport events management skills
  • already held plan sports instruction programme management skills
  • already held motivate in sports management skills
  • already held instruct in sport communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held apply risk management in sports information skills

All 9 carried skills, including the 7 the golf instructor role treats as required.

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

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.
