I've only ever been asked for DSC 2 by FC - some forestry companies (Bidwells e.g.) don't want anything, other than insurance. And money. Obviously.
 
Most of the Forestry companies want lev one FC want lev to and Fit n Competent register. Some of the new ground that the FC are tendering out to private companies also need to have a lev 2 standard for the DMP .I feel its only a matter of time before most will want a higher standard.
 
as 6 pointer says level 1 but you must be acompanied by a level 2 off the syndicate and you must gain level 2 within the year. i think the people who ask for level two candidates as it is a bind on people to always arrange to be on the ground with the level 1. ,atb wayne
 
With forestry commission scotland you can be on the lease with level 1 but can only stalk the ground if you are with someone with level 2.

My experience is that most require Level 1 and the FC require Level 2.

All have requested the details of every person conducting deer management on each lease (in effect no guests, prohibiting someone from making a commercial enterprise out of a given lease)
 
You can be a name on an FC lease with level 1 as long as you are working towards level 2. Somebody on the lease must have level 2 though
