ROPES THAT RESCUE (See Ropes That Rescue Course Schedules
Here ):
Both a comprehensive rope rigging school and a rope access consulting firm based in mountainous northern Arizona with programs around the US, Canada and Australia. The firm teaches roped techniques to emergency rescue teams in industry, mines, wilderness search & rescue, emergency medical and fire services. RTR is renowned for its teaching of practical rigging principles with understanding and simplicity.
RTR holds workshops specifically for linemen on electric power transmission line tower access & rescue. RTR also teaches firefighters and rescuers on power line rescue with newly released awareness-level seminars. They also teach hard rock high scaling, scaffolding rescue, structural bridge inspection and difficult roped access to industry.
These courses are in-depth, hands-on courses, emphasizing training the trainer . RTR seminars are designed to foster serious inquiry into the field of rope rescue and rigging with emphasis on testing and serious scrutiny of procedures in use around the country. Therefore, these seminars are those who have established protocols, and are seeking an active investigation and analysis of the multiple disciplines and techniques sure to be present. Students are encouraged to exchange ideas in a friendly and flexible setting. Many people involved with rescue work today know WHAT they believe, but not WHY they believe it. These courses are for those seeking a keen understanding behind a given methodology or procedure. Much of the classroom time is devoted to just such an inquiry, which we believe arms the student with answers to questions your team will certainly ask. In this context, the instructor will remain open to new ideas but will be conducting the class in a manner which will focus course direction. Specialized equipment, while interesting and sometimes timesaving, will be looked upon as peripheral, whereas basic skills knowledge will remain central to the course's objectives. RTR believes that it is these basic skills, which allow the rescuer to problem-solve and improvise in difficult situations which is key to the development of any rescue instructor. Basic skills are sometimes viewed negatively as too basic or rudimentary. It is perhaps the most advanced and thought provoking course of it's kind anywhere in the world-built upon basics.

Services for Team Skills Workshop
The Team Skills Rescue Workshop is ideal for industrial and wilderness rescue teams and is designed to review some practices from the PSRS, yet carry on into more demanding rescue practices and team-building skills. This, and the PSRS, are the seminars which fulfill the "90% solution" on most rope rescues within industry and wilderness locations. Lectures on intermediate physics and how it relates to rope rigging are common throughout the duration of this seminar. Emphasis is places on "why" we do something, rather than "how".

Services for Advanced Skills Workshop
The Advanced Skills Rescue Workshop is held only one time during any given year and is a seven day seminar dealing with the remaining "10% Solution". This rigorous course "for wizards" applies some aspects of the TSRS yet goes well beyond these both in intensity of rigging, and application of physical principles. The course begins abruptly with an impromptu field exercise to assess existing skill level within the "team".
