If the truth be known then there is not a lot of point in getting trained to a higher level.
Lets be honest. Jobs in the deer sector are like hens teeth and those that there are, are normally dead mans boots.
It's all one big con.
1st they tell you you need NSCC ( got that ) in the early 90s.
2nd then Advanced SCC ( got that ) 1st time without tutoring unlike 50% of the candidates
3rd RAC Cirencester Deer course ( got that ) passed no problem
4th BASC Woodland Stalking (got that ) no problem
Did all these only to be told "Oh no you now need to do DSC1 and 2 and that'll cost you £££?"
Where exactly has it got me, 1x FC interview because I hounded the FC Ranger to death. Why didn't I get the job. Well I didn't have a degree having done a thesis on some rare butterfly that hatches once on a Wednesday every 10 years.
Silly me for neglecting to be prepared. Perhaps I should have drilled a hole in my groin, painted my skin a different color and called myself an ethnic minority. Job sorted on grounds of positive discrimination.
Please, please don't fool yourselves.
Get your level 1 to get your FAC.
Get your level 2 to further educate yourself.
You are 99.9% not going to get a job because of what you know, you will get a job by being in the right place at the right time and knowing the right people. The same could be said of winning the lottery using lucky dip
