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