Job Prerequisites

The job prerequisites screen is used to define the experience and training required to perform a given job. When a job is selected, the experience prerequisites for that position are displayed in the middle grid named "Experience prerequisites for selected Job" and the training prerequisites for that position are displayed in the bottom grid named "Training prerequisites for selected Job".

 

This information is used to show the position requirements when entering a person’s target position Certifications/Target Positions.

 

NOTE: Clicking the mouse on most of the column headings will allow the user to sort that column by ascending Ascending or descending Descending order.

 

The NATIONAL data distributed in this table is based on the latest version of the NWCG PMS 310-1Guide.
