51.4/ 100

1 Share of the admissions coordinator role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the student financial support coordinator 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 admissions coordinator role treats 3 of its required skills as things a student financial support coordinator already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • provide education management support
  • provide information on education financing
  • provide information on school services

What stands in the way is 5 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 11 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A admissions coordinator role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a student financial support coordinator background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held student financial aid programmes business, administration and law
  • already held provide information on education financing communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held provide information on school services assisting and caring
  • already held provide education management support management skills
  • already held kindergarten school procedures education
  • already held education administration business, administration and law

All 11 carried skills, including the 3 the admissions coordinator role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 14 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.

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.
