Welcome!

For 25 years, Raven Rescue has been teaching clients to operate safely in high-risk environments. We offer courses and consulting services in swiftwater, surface ice, technical rope and boat handling.

The courses we teach are developed and certified by Rescue 3 International, the global leader in rescue training on land, in the water and in the air. Rescue 3’s curriculum has been tested and refined through more than 90,000 students in 33 countries. As the industry leader, Rescue 3 courses are the “standard-of-care”, or minimum recommended training, in Canada and around the world.

Of particular interest to emergency personnel, our courses have been independently audited and found to be fully compliant with the rigorous National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 1670 and 1006 Standards for technical rescues.

But while we teach the all the skills necessary for certification, we also work with our clients to ensure their training is customized to their unique needs. You learn the skills you need to perform your job safely.

We also provide consulting services including site safety assessment, flood management, and expert testimony.

So choose a Canadian company that provides the globally-recognized certifications and excellent customer service you need to enhance your training program and reduce your organization’s risk profile. Raven Rescue is the obvious choice for all your training needs.

Firefighter Fatalities - 2008

The NFPA has just released its annual report on firefighter fatalities in the US. Once again, fatalities are among the highest on record.

our approach

We believe training should be tailored to the specific needs of each client. While we teach all the skills and knowledge necessary for certification, we approach a course for emergency personnel in an entirely different manner than one for resource managers or outdoor guides.
