Presentation of the Manager Law Essential

Who is it for?

The Essentials are aimed at protected area professionals according to their level of responsibility or place in the hierarchy. Thus, the Manager Essential is designed for protected area professionals who need to plan, supervise and evaluate the work of rangers.

The "Law" speciality is aimed at managers whose main activity is law enforcement and, secondarily, the valorisation of protected areas and their natural resources.

What these professionals must know:

Leaders need a global understanding of how protected areas work, their characteristics and needs, and the issues that concern them. They are not necessarily looking for specific technical skills.

Goals of the Essentials

Managers need relatively technical skills, depending on the subjects they cover, but they also need to be able to make decisions, manage staff, measure results and assess impacts, so that they can regularly reorient PA planning.

Example: the head of the anti-poaching brigade can take the Essentiel Manager Law course and have the knowledge he needs to manage his teams effectively at his fingertips.
