Need rescue training? Enroll in a training course specifically for confined space rescue.
This 40-hour Confined Space Rescue course is designed for first responder rescue teams that may encounter non-entry and confined space entry rescue scenarios. The course covers both horizontal and vertical Permit-Required Confined Spaces, along with elevated rescue scenarios and equipment training. The course utilizes a stair-stepped educational process that involves both classroom and manipulative skills learning for rescue teams.
The Confined Space Rescue operations training program discusses the use of the National Incident Management System (NIMS) for all scenario-based exercises. It focuses on the selected objectives of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 1670 Rescue Standard.
In addition, the Confined Space Rescue course meets the training objectives established by the performance and capabilities evaluations for rescue teams described in Appendix F of the Confined Space Entry Standard set by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) under 29 CFR 1910.146.
Some skills taught in the course include:
Upon completing the Confined Space Rescue operations course, the attendee will receive a course completion card valid for one year as competency-based annual refresher training is required. This card certifies the attendee’s knowledge of confined space rescue services and operations, from non-entry elevated confined space rescue and equipment training to horizontal and vertical Permit-Required Confined Spaces.
This 2-hour course teaches participants how to properly follow your location’s Emergency Action Plan and/or Fire Prevention Plan. Therefore, this course will always be customized based upon your location’s Emergency Action Plan and/or Fire Prevention Plan.
