1 Share of the boat rigger role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the model maker 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 boat rigger role treats 6 of its required skills as things a model maker already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

align components
fasten components
mechanics
quality standards
read engineering drawings
read standard blueprints

What stands in the way is 9 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 14 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A boat rigger role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a model maker background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area

already held 3D printing process arts and humanities
already held printing materials arts and humanities
already held operate 3D computer graphics software communication, collaboration and creativity
already held 3D modelling natural sciences, mathematics and statistics
already held align components handling and moving
already held fasten components handling and moving

All 14 carried skills, including the 6 the boat rigger role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 40 missing skills fall into 11 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.

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.
