Never before have so many top instructors come together in Canada to teach this many technical rescue courses in one place. No matter your level of experience, you will find a variety of courses that challenge and inspire.
I had lots of previous experience, but still learned a lot!

This is one of the questions our instructors get all the time from our students. As such we thought we might write something up to be used as a reference and help point you in the right direction.
On land, when you are in an emergency situation, your survival instinct is usually to stay on your feet so you’re prepared to maneuver out of the danger. When you’re in the water in an emergency, that same instinctive reaction can lead to one of the most deadly accidents: foot entrapment. From NRS e-news.
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.
