Full Description: This is a pilot course offering so the tuition fee of $375 is being waived for all students participating in the class. Lunch is included but students will still be responsible for all other costs associated with the class (i.e., breakfast, dinner, housing).

This course meets the job performance requirements defined in NFPA 1006 chapters 6.1.1, 6.1.2, 10.1, and 10.2 . Level I rescue skills are applicable to vehicle events involving common passenger
vehicles and environments where rescuer intervention does not constitute a high level of risk based upon the environment or other factors.

Students will be introduced to many different aspects covering vehicle and machinery design, access, and disentanglement of victims while developing a planned response all the way through termination of the event. Equipment stabilization and energy isolation play a large part in vehicle and machinery events and will be covered in this class. Students will have access to multiple passenger vehicles, small machinery, large vehicles and machinery. Resources are added and updated constantly so scenarios will not be finalized until the first day of class. With some of the best instructors in the country, students are sure to gain valuable knowledge and experience to be used in the real world and shared among their departments and peers.
