ABOUT THIS COURSE:

This 3-day NFPA Swiftwater Technician level course generally comprises 2 hours of classroom instruction each morning to front-load the day’s objectives. Subsequently, this will be immediately followed up with developing and practicing technical water and rope rescue skills throughout the remainder of the day. The initial emphasis is on self-rescue and hazard avoidance. Moreover, other objectives include hydrology, hazards and obstacles, basic rescue equipment, setting up basic rope systems, controlling in-water contact rescues, extrication, site control, and scene management, as well as understanding the common terminology related to all swift water rescue deployments.

Furthermore, personnel taking the course must complete a technical level ropes course to fulfill all training objectives for swiftwater Operations and Technician, which is the responsibility of the agency/personnel taking the course. Additionally, we will execute all in-water required training during our PRO-SAR NFPA Swiftwater Technician course under the NFPA framework.
