Abstract Research is devoted to solving complex aims: educational (the development of ecological competence of managers), and socio-economic (optimization of access to recreational resources) through the improvement of innovative algorithms, theory and practice of wildlife management. We also tried to identify the problems of integration of Natural and Human sciences as the problems of environmental education.This article contains a description of the elements of how to organize environmental management training in real situations. On the example of integrated assessment of the socio-natural potential (of the Caucasian Mineral Waters region) shows the role of manager's ecological competence in making optimal decisions that affect human values. The article emphasized that the possibility of society full of ecosystem services is directly linked to the idea of the uniqueness and intrinsic value of the natural world, whose safety should be regarded as a guarantee of human health.
