Candidates must possess a bachelor’s degree from an accredited college/university, with preference given to those with degrees in natural or historic resource-based management or Park and Recreation Management, and three years of full-time professional park and conservation experience, of which one year must be supervisory. Additional education or experience may be substituted for the required experience or education, respectively, on a year-for-year basis.
