All Rescue 3 training courses are valid for three years from successful completion of a training course. It is the operator’s responsibility to remain current and competent with the system and any changes in techniques or equipment.

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.
