Professionalising the ranger workforce has been at the heart of the global discussions supporting ranger welfare, and of our mission.
We are proud to share that we have been assured by City & Guilds and ILM, in collaboration with JOLTS Consulting Limited. This is the first internationally accredited ranger training programme of its kind, and we are grateful to everyone involved in this process.
Just as professionalising the ranger workforce is essential, so too is setting the standard for the training they receive and that of the structures that manage them.
Being accredited enables us to further deliver internationally recognised ranger and leadership training, with Accredited Basic Ranger Programme (City & Guilds) and Accredited Basic Ranger Leadership Programme (ILM) Courses. Built with international best practice, field‑tested methods and rigorous instructional design, the programme helps teams prevent wildlife crime, operate ethically, and protect critical landscapes. It provides assured, vocational qualifications that support career growth and aspirations.
With City & Guilds’ 145+ years global reputation, this step professionalises our work, builds trust, and ensures our conservation workforce meets the highest standards. This recognition provides organisations and rangers with trusted, transferable credentials that support safer and more effective wildlife protection, and we are excited for the road ahead!
