Course Description
Advanced Technical
Rescue Solutions is a course designed to provide a “beyond Pro Board”
rescue experience using realistic timed scenarios to challenge our students.
The “Golden Hour” is the benchmark in first response and being
“On the Clock” not only adds to the realism but places a premium on
teamwork to complete rescues in challenging environments. The reality on the
ground is, we never have enough people and wish we had more equipment. This
course will teach you to do more with less, without sacrificing safety or
effectiveness. Come prepared to put your prerequisites to work, very little
time will be spent in the classroom.
The course delivery methodology consists of lecture with PowerPoint presentations, demonstrations, participant discussions, scenarios, hands-on construction and operation of rope rescue systems in industrial confined spaces as well as performance-based application exercises.
