TEAM COMMANDERS COURSE

The Ranger Team Commanders Course is a mentally and physically tasking course; teaching both cadets and seniors Team Leadership skills in the field environment. The students will find confidence in themselves, their team members, and in the use of their equipment via multiple in-depth training scenarios. This course is built to challenge your comfort zone as a leader and will stretch your limits and training in the field or while on-rappel on our 60+ foot tower. Advanced Navigation, Search Theory, SAR Techniques, and Mission Team Leadership is heavily emphasized throughout the course. Academics will be taught at the Advanced Ranger Level, and will cover Ground Team Leaders tasks and Ranger Team Commander knowledge. This course teaches the student how to apply skills to be efficient Ranger Team Commanders and Ground Team Leaders. The skills learned will be evaluated and tested during missions with real world scenariors and perform realistice rescues on Hawk Mountain away from base camp. This course requires participants to be highly self-motivated and have no physical limitations.  Students will be evaluated on Ranger 1st Class Skills and some Advanced Ranger Skills.
