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.

Communications

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

  • In person, at the start of our regular 1st Tuesday of the month training sessions

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

  • PCSAR Announce - Mail to this list goes to all our members plus any other that have signed up because they want to know about our events. Use this mailing list unless the training announcement is confidential to our members. If the RCMP liaison isn't already a PCSAR members, they'll generally be on this list.
  • PCSAR Members - Use this list if the training announcement is only targeted to our members, and we don't want it distributed more widely. For instance, if another organization is offering training just for our members, this list would be appropriate.
  • SARA Training Coordinators emailing list

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. The run typically 15-20 minutes.
