Performance ratings, experience tiers, tether compliance

Animal Training

Daily training sessions logged from the animal in front of you, with experience-tier gating, regulatory tether-flying compliance and per-animal programmes.

What it does

One place to log every training session, with the structure inspectors and head falconers expect.

Performance ratings per session

Six ratings covering the full quality range, all stored against the animal and the keeper who logged it.

  • Very Good · Good · Ok
  • Poor · Very Poor
  • Not Trained (with mandatory reason on tether animals)

Traffic-light experience tiers

Every animal carries a GREEN / AMBER / RED experience flag. So does every keeper.

  • Keepers see only animals at or below their tier
  • Under-experienced keepers logging RED animals need approver sign-off
  • Tier mismatches trigger push + email to staff with training-approve permission

Per-animal programmes

Aim, method and frequency target stored per animal. Sessions roll up against the target so progress is visible week-by-week.

  • Frequency unit: per day / per week / per month
  • Programmes auto-locked at 4×/week for tether enclosures
  • Full history per animal with status pills and notes

Tether-flying compliance

UK falconry regulations require tethered animals to be flown / trained at least 4 times per Mon-Sun week. The platform tracks this automatically against a Mon-Sun rolling target.

  • Dedicated tether-compliance dashboard, worst-first ordering
  • Per-animal 6-week sparkline so trends are visible at a glance
  • "Not Trained" on tether requires a reason category + authoriser sign-off

How it helps

Less paperwork, faster feedback, and a real audit trail for every "did you fly today?" question.

Log from the field, not the desk

The mobile app means keepers can log a session — with a weight, status, notes and authorship — from the enclosure, in the moment, while the animal's behaviour is still fresh.

"Not Trained" can't be a quiet anomaly

On tethered animals, "Not Trained" requires a reason category (weather / animal unwell / staff shortage / vet visit / other) and a manager or designated authoriser has to sign it off. The audit log records who decided and when.

Authoriser picker per collection

Admins are always notified; head falconers, senior staff and welfare leads can be opted into the authoriser list. Both push notifications and email fallback are sent — so a missed push doesn't mean a missed authorisation request.

Weekly compliance PDF, ready for the inspector

One-tap export of the tether-compliance dashboard (landscape A4, worst-first) and the per-animal weekly detail (portrait A4, day-by-day with session detail, author and authorisation state) — both branded with the standard provenance footer.

Push reminders when animals fall behind

A cron checks daily for tether animals in "tight territory" — where the sessions still needed by Sunday outnumber the days left — and pushes the duty manager so it can be caught before week-end.
