National Headquarters has approved this course for credit towards Ground Team Member!  A CAPR 60-3 waiver letter is attached and will be provided to all students.

 

(Session 1 has ended)

Session 2:  18 July 2020, 1000-1900 EDT

 

You are only required to attend ONE of the two sessions but you must attend all-time blocks of that session in order to receive credit.  All live sessions will be held via Zoom.  Attendance will be logged.  Click here to view the full schedule and Zoom link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/19RuapZIb-0SiCp8a2xTmv88fTMhEyDrtpbXrfZp07xI/edit?usp=sharing

 

All course information, materials, and assignments will be delivered via Google Classroom.  This is a separate Google Classroom than the one being used for the Ranger Program.  You should have received a Google Classroom invitation to this specific course.  If you did not, please see this slideshow for information on how to join manually:  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ks-N381MrG_eqVtv7SUbHXOeLHxDa8Ea/view?usp=sharing

 

We have found some e-mail domains, including some CAP wings and schools, do not allow access to Google Classroom.  If you are having trouble joining, please try using a personal e-mail address.

 

Registration and payment information will be shared at the conclusion of both sessions to ensure the accomplishment of all instruction.  You will be provided a link to a NASAR page where you can submit your information and pay.  That will be matched with our attendance roster, and NASAR will handle the issuing and mailing of completion certificates.

 

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at distancelearning@capranger.org.

 

Thank you for your participation in this course and we look forward to seeing you online!

About Hawk Mountain

Similar to the mission of the US Army Ranger School, Hawk Mountain trains field experts ready to build, teach, and lead CAP ground operations.  CAP Rangers are expected to return to their home units with the skills necessary to build their unit’s ES programs, teach fellow team members, and lead those teams in the field in the most challenging, protracted, and austere search environments.

Located in Kempton, Pennsylvania, along the rugged Appalachian Trail, Hawk Mountain Ranger School is the longest-running Search & Rescue School in the nation.  For over 60 years, HMRS has provided some of the best wilderness SAR training to cadets and seniors throughout the country.  HMRS is the most intense and rewarding activity that CAP has to offer.  If you have never been to the mountain, now is your chance to become a part of the tradition.  Visit us today at https://www.capranger.org.
