Sign Cutter is the highest level of certification provided by UTS at this time. Those wanting to achieve this level will be challenged to use all of their previous training and demonstrate their ability to track an individual (or individuals) through and during many different aspects. The scenario(s) will contain many different challenges, which will task the student to use basic as well as advance skills to accomplish. There will be no one who has at least achieved the Tracker II level who cannot achieve this level. However, the student will have to demonstrate, significantly, their ability to follow and describe difficult and complex sign.

The criteria for becoming Sign Cutter certified are as follows:

• Demonstrate high level of tracking (seeing sign and following it) ability.
• Practice strong teamwork ethics.
• Use and understand tracking vocabulary while tracking.
• Demonstrate ability to analyze and interpret difficult and confusing sign.
• Debrief and document the scenario(s) accurately and completely.
• Demonstrate appropriate decision making.
• Demonstrate and promote the value of tracking.
