Course Description:

High-Risk Unified Commander (HRUC) was developed to provide front-line supervisors, public safety executives, and training officers with contemporary and realistic strategies, tactics, and related information they can then use to simultaneously “stop the killing, dying, and crying.” With four of the eight hours of content being interactive (including demonstrations of interior tactics and a tabletop exercise based on current trends), HRUC is a fast-paced yet comprehensive training program that offers emergency responders unparalleled information within a reasonable amount of time. Participants will also learn how to apply past lessons learned and resulting recommendations to future incidents occurring within urban environments with high operational tempo as well as rural ones with limited resources. Class is open to those in law enforcement, EMS and the Fire Service.
