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