Course Description:

Rescue Task Force - Advanced was developed to provide law enforcement, fire department, and emergency medical services personnel with CONTEMPORARY, REALISTIC, and SCALABLE information they can then apply to better process dynamic intelligence, overcome asymmetric tactics on the part of the offender, maintain momentum, and maximize available resources to simultaneously “stop the killing, dying, and crying.” With six of the eight hours of content being hands-on, Rescue Task Force - Advanced is a fast-paced yet comprehensive training program that offers emergency responders unparalleled information and repetitions within a reasonable amount of time. Participants will also learn how to apply such information in low-light and/or extreme environmental conditions within urban environments with high operational tempo as well as rural ones with limited resources.
