This course will teach advance rope rescue techniques and cover more complex rescue scenarios. The objective is to expand the student’s problem solving capability. Students are able to assess, plan, and execute even the most complex rescue scenarios. This class has very little PowerPoint lecture (seat) time. We hit the ground running on day one with an emphasis of hands on training the entire week.
