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