Alts & Avoiding Reinventing the Wheel

I want to get another account to train up an alt or two to switch back to this account. Naturally I plan to using EveMon to tweak out ideas, but I wasn't sure if there are skill plans already in existence for this sort of thing. I did find some. Eve-U has a few things, such as a Hauler Alt. Trade does along with that, but is a simple skill set. PI is fairly simple too. A science/RP alt is where things get complicated. I don't need a miner alt, but Eve-U has a nice guide for it too. Cyno is a given... clones will just have to be a bit pricey.

So, I'm not asking anyone to do the leg work for me, just if they have already done it or know if it is out there someplace specifically.

Btw, I did a bunch of googling...

Eve-U's nice write-ups:

http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Creating_an_Alt_Miner
http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/How_to_start_an_Alt_in_EVE_Online

A detailed guide with everything but what I was looking for:

A decent but somewhat light guide:

I am looking to make one character do this, and I'm not sure about all the skills. Here's what I have so far:

I think that's good enough, but I'd like some feedback from others because I'm probably missing something.

I'd skip:
Infomorph Psychology V
Negotiation V
Social V

But that's up to you of course.

Oops, I forgot Research Project Management. That one is kind of important!

I'm not a big fan of certificates because there's often a lot of useless skills involved into getting one.

But, there's one certificate I can advice to any new player who wants to fly a ship somewhere sometime (and any older player that hasn't got it should be ashamed.)

Core Competency Standard.

With this certificate you got most of the fitting, capacitor, targeting, flying and integrity to a pretty decent level.
