This three-day course is designed to familiarize students with the rapid
intervention team concept, and give them the tools to develop or enhance their
rapid intervention team programs. Rapid intervention is necessary not only for
the fire service but should be considered by an emergency response
organization whose personnel enter environments that can place their lives and
health in immediate danger. All emergency responders and personnel who may act
as incident commanders at emergency incidents should be familiar with rapid
intervention concepts so they can effectively use this risk management tool.
Note:
This is a very physically
demanding course which requires you to be in good physical condition.
