Rope Rescue Specialist (RRS)
The Rope Rescue Specialist (RRS) formerly known as the Rope Rescue Technician Advanced (RRTA) is designed for rope rescue team members who have already completed a comprehensive basic training and now want to specialise. This training continues where the Rope Rescue Technician (RRT) course finishes. The RRS course examines advanced technical solutions. It extends on the knowledge picked up from the RRT including the use of advanced artificial high directional and its various configurations of steep, diagonal, and horizontal spans, the use of multiple track lines in highline operations, industrial lead climbing, loads and forces, incident management and scenario training. This training is consistent with NFPA 1670 and 1006 standards for technician level.
Course information
As well as externally accredited courses, we also deliver bespoke training packages on request for when operational needs are not met by the more conventional course listing.
We can offer these at different, tiered skill levels and course duration and location. We place a lot of emphasis on the ability of the operators to train safely whilst ensuring that they are able to identify which pieces of equipment they would have operationally, and which is there to ensure training is managed safely. This allows us to reduce the training burden and ensure we don’t transfer risk from training into operations.
Our experienced training team are able to offer bespoke rope courses in Urban, Maritime and Mountain environments and can offer ongoing support via CPD days that fit the needs of end users.
