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 Leatherworking & Upholstery 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 Repairing is very distinctive for majors, but the Critical Thinking, Reading Comprehension, Active Listening, Monitoring, Complex Problem Solving, Time Management, Speaking, Active Learning, Judgment and Decision Making, Service Orientation, Operation Monitoring, Learning Strategies, Coordination, Quality Control Analysis, Operation and Control, Social Perceptiveness, Instructing, Mathematics, Persuasion, Writing, Equipment Selection, Negotiation, Management of Personnel Resources, Troubleshooting, Repairing, Systems Evaluation, Systems Analysis, Equipment Maintenance, Operations Analysis, Management of Material Resources, Management of Financial Resources, Technology Design, Science, Installation, and Programming are the three most important skills for people in the field.
