[edit] Announcement
Course Name: Search and Rescue Basics
Description:
Also known as SAR Fundamentals, SAR Basics is the introductory course that covers all the basic material that a SAR worker needs to know. It includes both classroom and outdoor exercises. A provincially recognized certificate is issued for satisfactory completion of the course.
Offered To:
All interested persons - search and rescue workers, government workers, and members of the public.
Instructor:
Brett Wuth and guest instructors
Place: Pincher Creek.
Date:
The course is 40 hours spread over 6 days. October 28-30 and November 18-20, 2016. See detail of times and places on the web page http://pcsar.dyndns.org:8080/mediawiki/index.php/2016_Fall_SAR_Basics
Prerequisites:
By the 2nd weekend of the SAR Fundamentals course, the student must have completed separately and show an ICS 100 certificate. This approximately 3 hour course is available from multiple sources, including for free on-line from the Alberta government. See http://pcsar.webhop.org/mediawiki/index.php/Training/ICS_100
For SAR Alberta certification, the student must also attain separately (before or after) and show a valid Standard First Aid certification.
Although there are roles in SAR for people of all physical abilities, this course requires the students to perform some vigourous outdoor activities. Students should be able to walk 3 km in one hour through lightly wooded mostly level terrain in cold weather while wearing a 10 kg pack and avoiding terrain hazards.
Cost:
This course is funded by an Alberta Government grant, with additional costs being underwritten by PCSAR.
Seating is limited. Students who register but do not attend or do not complete the course restrict participation and funding for other students who would have completed the course. A $50 deposit is required to hold a seat. The deposit will be refunded if the student completes the course.
