Multimedia

Data on the critical and distinctive skills necessary for those working in the Multimedia field from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Multimedia majors need many skills, but most especially Active Learning. The revealed comparative advantage (RCA) shows that Multimedia majors need more than the average amount of Equipment Selection, Operation and Control, and Operations Analysis.

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 Multimedia 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 Equipment Selection is very distinctive for majors, but the Active Learning, Critical Thinking, and Active Listening are the three most important skills for people in the field.
