Ranks

Below is a summary of the ranks within the Park Rangers, their requirements and access to training / equipment.

Hunters are not Park Rangers but are registered on the same computer system as us.

They can rent the basic equipment needed to go hunting with cash at the armoury but cannot access any Ranger systems such as radio or dispatches.

Newly employed Rangers under training.

Trainees are new Rangers without access to advanced equipment, they can patrol alone but will ideally be under at least some supervision from other Rangers while they learn.
After a week or two trainees will be invited to do a supervised patrol with a senior ranger to see if they are ready to progress to Assistant Ranger.

Newly trained or part-time Rangers.

Assistant Rangers are either less active / part time Rangers or have only recently passed initial training. They can access some extra equipment and undergo most specialised training.

Experienced Rangers with various training.

Park Rangers have access to most equipment as well as advanced training and the ability to conduct hunting inductions after training.

Experienced Rangers with additional trust & responsibilities.

Senior Rangers carry out hunting inductions, Ranger training or generally assist with the running of the Rangers in some way. Seniors can access evidence cameras and use the management computer.
