Course duration: 1 or 2 Days
This one day safety course is designed to prevent rescuer fatalities.

It also introduces procedures to follow in the case of wide spread flooding. This course is classroom based and as such after completing this course students are not considered rescuers even under the supervision of a SRT trained rescuer.
