Definition of Done

Discuss with special use admins on what specific information is wanted and how it should be provided. Is it possible to put hiring requirements in here and would those be enough for the special use admins to make a decision.

I think this should be a pre-demo priority.

All users were concerned about having this information ready when applying and how it would be uploaded at the same time. All users had large numbers of files for each guide. One user had a spreadsheet they created for this requirement that stored all guide info and qualifications.

Suggestion Create a spreadsheet template for guide info (certifications, confirmation numbers, etc.) Then, SUAs can ask for additional proof of certification if they feel it is needed based on the trip details.

Also allow users to enter an overview of their guide qualification requirements and training instead of uploading the guide info spreadsheet. This should include instructions that the guide info will be required later in the approval process.

All users and SUAs were positive about the idea of a Guide Database. This would allow professional guides to manage a profile themselves that is kept updated, along with qualifications, training and certification status. Then an organization could just attach particular guides from the database, instead of building and managing this info for every single permit application.

  1. Use the following text:

• Attach a list of all guides who would be working under the permit.

• Describe your requirements for employment and staff training programs.

• Attach copies of current CPR and First Aid certifications, Wilderness First Responder cards, and other applicable certifications for guides. Please do not send copies of social security cards or passports. Send driver’s licenses only if driving is part of the outfitting and guiding service.

• If the state in which your activity would occur requires licensing for outfitters and guides, include a copy of relevant licenses. File must be in .pdf, .doc, .docx., or .rtf format, and less than 25MB.

These guide identification details are not required to apply, but will be required before your application is approved.
