Here in the UK, the state requires strict background checks to be made for anybody intending to become involved with children or teens, not only church work with children and teens.
Well lets see - In the Army, I was trained in General supply --- at one point, I was selected to be a supply inspector for unit supply. That would be like saying - I am a jeep mechanic - but I want you to inspect tanks!
I had a friend who was a chopper pilot - right when he got out - he became a manager of a connivence store. Not exactly similar jobs.
and I am sure there are many who have taken jobs of very different skills!

The qualification for a bishop plainly give the qualifications. I Tim 3:6. Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil. This applies to anyone being put into a position of instruction.
Nothing that I know of prepares one to be a leader in a body of Christ other than being a member and instructed by the church. Not even a helicopter pilot. I am sure you would not liken the church unto a convenience store.
