[QUOTE="rjs330, post: 77662524, member: 377008"] It is for Fish Wildlife and Park people. How do I know? We have a university here where people go four years foe education and it's for wildlife. It sounds like you are talking about a different type of parks department. Here is what I found regarding Park Rangers. If you look at the types of degrees they want it's mostly all wildlife and environmental degrees, biology ecology etc. Just like I said. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.parkrangeredu.org/#:~:text=Many%20aspiring%20park%20rangers%20choose,just%20to%20name%20a%20few.[/URL] Now if you are talking about national monuments, landmarks etc then they don't need any education. Previous experience as a law enforcement officer is enough. Without experience they so need some college credits but it's not four years and it's not LE education. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.liveabout.com/u-s-park-police-officer-career-information-974834[/URL] [LIST] [*][B]Education and Experience: [/B]Applicants must have either 60 hours of college credit or two years of relevant work history.

[/LIST] So it looks like they don't have much more training requirements than a lot of le agencies. So I don't think you were correct here. 60 hours is an associates degree.

Not as much training requirements as you made it out to be. [/QUOTE]
