GES 116
All Emergency Services qualifications require you to have a GES 116 qualification before you can start any other ES training, including sUAS (drone), all Air Crew, Mission Radio Operator and Ground Team qualifications. Senior members also need to complete Level 1 while Cadets must also obtain their Curry Award, and you have to have commander approval. You can find the GES 116 course in AXIS, which is under the Online Learning link in eServices. Following are some other links that you might find helpful as you study for the exam:
