have a training session.  As always, this training is 100% optional and voluntary. Training is not required in order to rat or dispatch.

 


While we have a lot of information written down in the Fuel Rats Knowledge Base, and watching rescues in #fuelrats provides valuable knowledge, nothing beats hands on experience.  This   This experience can be gained on live rescues, or in a controlled environment where situations can range from standard rescues to any situation that we can think of.  This under the sun.  This hands-on experience is useful for Ratlings ratlings and experienced Rats rats alike.    

A number of rats have volunteered to help provide training on from basic rat and /dispatch skills to more advanced skills, like TFPs.  If   If you see any of the Rats rats named below in chat, and are interested in the training, feel free to reach out to them in IRC for some organized practice.   

 

Rat Training

 

Do not hesitate to ask your trainer to experiment with new or different procedures, try out new ships, or any other scenarios that you can imagine.

The drill channels can be used for training, though there is no need for an overseer to be involved with training.  Please note that a training session is NOT a drill.

Anyone interested in volunteering to offer training, please contact Anja324 or Velica Foriana.


Tip

The best way to get training is by DMing a trainer.  While approximate time zone availability is generally preferred, many trainers keep different schedules- feel free to ask!  If you choose to message multiple trainers at the same time, please only schedule a session with one.
