Is rope rescue your main focus? If you have completed a Confined Space Technician or Rescue Essentials™ course, then Roco’s Rope Rescue Technician is your next step. This 50-hour course builds upon the core skills already learned and provides the additional competencies needed to meet the job performance requirements listed in NFPA 1006 and 1670 (Rope Rescue Technician).

Complex elevated or high angle rope rescue operations require advanced rope skills. Roco’s Rope Rescue Technician completes those skill requirements and includes technical skills such as rope ascension, high-lines and knot passing. Team response capabilities for technical rope rescue operations will be enhanced by the extensive problem-solving exercises and rapid deployment drills offered in this course.

Teaching and practice stations prepare students for certification testing, which includes individual skills proficiency testing as well as scenario-based performance evaluations. A written exam is also included. Roco’s Rescue Technician Certification is valid for two years and can be renewed by completing our Rope Rescue Recertification program
