Rescue 3 International Courses
N.F.P.A. & N.I.M.S. Compliant
Courses
All Rescue 3 International courses meet or exceed the N.F.P.A. 1670* and 1006*
training standards for technical rescue. In addition to the N.F.P.A. standards,
recent adoption of these training standards by the Department of Homeland
Security (DHS) now qualifies rescuers certified by Rescue 3 International as
meeting the minimum qualifications needed for natural or man-made disaster
responses.
*NFPA 1670 Standard on Operations and Training for Technical
Rescue Incidents
*NFPA 1006 Standard for Rescue Technician Professional Qualifications
Why take a N.F.P.A. & N.I.M.S. compliant course?
The NFPA and NIMS standards address a variety of technical rescue
disciplines. Both establish general guidelines for the AHJ in assessing hazards,
identifying levels of operational capabilities, and establishing training
documentation and response guidelines. Currently, Rescue 3's programs cover two
of these disciplines: water and rope. We also offer training at 3 skill levels:
awareness, operations, and technician; allowing the AHJ to customize training to
meet their needs.
NFPA 1006 Standard defines the professional qualifications an individual must
possess in order to be considered a rescue technician. This standard requires
the individual to undergo an assessment by a third party before they can be
considered a technician. This assessment is available from RQ3 through the
Professional Qualification Workshops.
As the AHJ, your group must determine the level of training each person on
your team will receive and how each standard will be followed. No matter what
your training goals, Rescue 3 can set up a program to fit your department's
individual needs.
