This is a sample schedule ([[SAR Fundamentals/Schedule|master]]) for SAR Fundamentals courses hosted by PCSAR.
Each section links to a lesson plan.

It is intended to help instructors schedule their sections.
It is not intended for students as a commitment of what will be taught when.
Times are only approximate.
Elements may be moved around.

== not covered ==

The following material is not explicitly scheduled
and where appropriate will be covered in earlier sections.

'''[[Training/Ideas/Lat Long|Navigation - Lat/Long]]'''
: 0.75 hr
: SAR Fundamentals Manual: Ch13
: SAR Fundamentals Manual: Ch.13 "Navigation"
: Basic SAR Skills Manual: Ch.7 "Navigation"
Rationale to not include:
SAR workers only use lat/long when interfacing with members of the public
and air searchers.  Conversion to UTM can be accomplished by a suitably
trained person in the planning section.

'''[[Training/Ideas/Legal land|Navigation - Legal Land Description, Road Numbering System, Municipal Approach Numbering System]]'''
* [[Legal Land Description]]
: 1.5 hr
:: 2006-09-30    10:15       11:45
: SAR Fundamentals Manual: Ch.13 "Navigation"
: Basic SAR Skills Manual: Ch.7 "Navigation"
Rationale to not include:
SAR workes only use LLD and its derivatives when navigating to the search
site and interfacing with the public and municipal workers.
Navigation by LLD is a difficult skill to maintain.
Conversion to UTM can be accomplished by a suitably
trained person in the planning section.

'''[[Training/Ideas/GPS|Navigation - GPS - practical - waypoints]]'''
* See [[SAR Fundamentals/Navigation instruments theory#GPS|lesson plan]] after 1:13

'''[[SAR Fundamentals/Specialty teams|Specialty teams]]'''
: good idea.  Try to work in in future years.

'''[[Training/Ideas/Rope orientation|Rope rescue]]'''
: 1.25 hr
: SAR Fundamentals Manual: 
:* Ch.24 "Rope Rescue Equipment"
:* Ch.25 "Rope Related Skills"
: Basic SAR Skills Manual:
:* Ch.21 "Rope Rescue Equipment"
:* Ch.22 "Rope Knots and Skills"
: related skills-exercise on knots
Rationale to not include:
To assist in a rope rescue takes considerably more training than
can be included in this course.

'''[[Training/Ideas/Mountain bike|Mountain Bike SAR]]'''
: Basic SAR Skills Manual: F-12 "Mountain Bike SAR"
Rationale to not include:
A speciality not often encountered.
