Training and Personnel Database

Training and staffing are first-class dependencies rather than footnotes attached to vehicles.

Production data

Stage 23 introduces schema-controlled qualification records under:

data/uk/training/

The current production set verifies eleven operational roles:

• Railway Police Officer;
• Mobile Operations Manager;
• Search Advisor;
• SAR Commander;
• Search Technician;
• Cave Rescue Specialist;
• Airfield Operations Supervisor;
• Operational Team Leader;
• Police Sergeant;
• Police Inspector;
• Ambulance Officer.

Evidence boundary

The mission pages verify that these roles exist and may be required or must be available before mission generation. They do not necessarily verify:

• the academy or classroom used;
• the exact course name;
• course duration;
• prerequisites;
• maximum class size;
• whether the qualification is transferable between vehicle types.

Unverified attributes are omitted rather than inferred.

Record types

The training schema supports:

• role-qualification — an operational role verified by missions, with course details still potentially unknown;
• course — a directly verified named course with any confirmed duration and prerequisites.

A role record must not be presented as a complete course record unless the course interface has been reproduced.

Personnel states

Mission records distinguish:

• available — qualified personnel that must exist before generation;
• required — exact personnel needed at the incident;
• average_minimum — an official average-minimum value rather than a guaranteed exact count;
• ranges — an explicit minimum-to-maximum requirement;
• probabilistic — chance-based personnel requirements.

Dependency mapping

The database is designed to model:

Mission → capability → vehicle → staffing → training → building or extension

Owning a vehicle alone does not prove that it can fulfil its intended operational role.

Planning guidance

Training recommendations should include reserve depth. A station with exactly the minimum number of qualified personnel can become unusable when staff are assigned elsewhere or several missions overlap.
