Skills

Data on the critical and distinctive skills necessary for those working in the Vendor & Product Certification Computer Programming field from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Vendor & Product Certification Computer Programming majors need many skills, but most especially Programming. The revealed comparative advantage (RCA) shows that Vendor & Product Certification Computer Programming majors need more than the average amount of Programming, Operations Analysis, Technology Design, Quality Control Analysis, Troubleshooting, Science, Installation, Operation Monitoring, Systems Evaluation, Complex Problem Solving, Systems Analysis, Management of Financial Resources, Mathematics, Active Listening, Critical Thinking, Time Management, Management of Personnel Resources, Judgment and Decision Making, Persuasion, Social Perceptiveness, Coordination, Active Learning, Management of Material Resources, Writing, Reading Comprehension, Monitoring, Speaking, Service Orientation, Instructing, Negotiation, Learning Strategies, Operation and Control, Equipment Selection, Equipment Maintenance, and Repairing.

These two visualizations, one a radial chart and one a bar chart, show the same information, a rating of how necessary the following skills are for Vendor & Product Certification Computer Programming majors. Toggle between "value" and "RCA" to see the absolute rating of that skill (value) and the revealed comparative advantage (RCA), or how much greater or lesser that skill's rating is than the average. The longer the bar or the closer the line comes to the circumference of the circle, the more important that skill is. The importance of Programming is very distinctive for majors, but the Programming, Active Listening, Critical Thinking, Complex Problem Solving, Quality Control Analysis, Reading Comprehension, Operations Analysis, Systems Evaluation, Systems Analysis, Writing, Judgment and Decision Making, Speaking, Active Learning, Mathematics, Time Management, Monitoring, Social Perceptiveness, Coordination, Instructing, Science, Persuasion, Management of Personnel Resources, Technology Design, Service Orientation, Learning Strategies, Operation Monitoring, Negotiation, Troubleshooting, Management of Financial Resources, Management of Material Resources, Installation, Operation and Control, Equipment Selection, Equipment Maintenance, and Repairing are the three most important skills for people in the field.
