Manage Range Courses
Course Overview / Concept
Courses are the parent category that you select as the basis for your range entry. Courses can be detailed including specific instructions to follow, or very simple such as Training. Most agencies create courses in PSTracker to match their existing courses of fire.
To manage courses, select Manage => Range
This brings you to the range dashboard. Use the range sub-menu to select Courses
This brings you to the manage courses page.
The manage course page lists your agency's courses of fire.
