Mandate

The Training Committee is responsible for organizing training opportunities for Pincher SAR members. These include monthly training activities at the regular meeting (1st Tuesday of the month from 19:15-21:00). They also include other training activities through out the year (such as a minimum of 2 mocks a year). The Training Committee is responsible to organize a SAR Fundamentals course once a year.

The committee members are not expected to perform the training, but rather to arrange for people who can do the training.

Tasks

Click here for the the tasks and suggestions have been referred to the Training Committee.

  • arrange schedule of training for monthly meetings
  • keep a description of training events that have occurred
  • announce and promote upcoming training
  • apply for training grants
  • schedule major (e.g. funded) courses
  • support instructors for major courses
  • register students in upcoming training

Brett

Adam,

We're missing the grant application for the 2010 courses, and the acceptance letters for 2010 and 2011. They'll tell us additional details we need to keep track of. Do you have them? If not, could you canvas the old board members to see if they kept copies?

Ron

1/ Contact instructors and determine tentative dates for the courses for which we received funding in 2010. (Snowmobile Safety, Search Manager Recertification.)

2/ Negotiate with AEMA to get an extension to those dates for those courses if possible.

3/ Schedule the 3 courses for which we received funding in 2011 (Wilderness First Aid, SAR Fundamentals, Man-Tracking).

Craig

As we discussed, could you please come up with a tentative schedule for our regular training nights (first Tuesday of each month)?

For comparison and ideas, take a look at past years:

Communications:

The training committee lets members and others know about training opportunities in the following ways.

Via e-mail to one or more of the following e-mail lists:

Occasionally a PCSAR event will be advertised in the local paper(s).

The training committee maintains contact with the training coordinator/committee in neighbouring SAR groups. This is both to let them know about what training we are offering and to find out what training they have going on, so we can let our members know of the opportunities. The neighbouring SAR groups that are regularly contacted, are:

Meetings

Meetings are the 1st Tuesday of each month immediately after the regular training at the Fire Hall, usually starting around 21:00.
