The movement of the North Magnetic Pole is dealt with by applying a correction, Magnetic Variation to the magnetic compass. We have been doing this, successfully, from the early days of air navigation and nothing has changed except the rate of change. Published values of Variation over the earth's surface will have to be updated more often, this includes VOR radials.
