ITRA Founding Sponsor
RESQ industry & outdoor is one of the first training companies in Europe with a certified ITRA instructor & assessor. We deliver several ITRA rescue qualification programs.
“The International Technical Rescue Association is a global non-profit that provides global recognition of technical rescue practitioners and instructors, across a wide range of rescue disciplines”.
Several of RESQ’s courses comply with the European Union Special Rescue (EUSR) standards and the German AGBF guidelines (Arbeitsgemeinschaft der Leiter der Berufsfeuerwehren) for SRHT (Spezielle Rettung aus Höhen und Tiefen – Special Rescue from Heights and Depths).
Recently, RESQ also became a CMC Authorized Training Provider, meaning our courses now meet the American NFPA standards for firefighter training.
