This seminar consists of extensive classroom and fieldwork in all phases of cave rescue including underground environment, vertical rescue, hauling systems, extrication techniques, medical management, communication systems, and the organization and management of cave rescue operations. Basic and advanced course material is presented for students who typically include cavers, emergency service personnel, and emergency managers. The Level 1 and Level 2 courses provide approximately 80 hours of instruction over eight days. The classes are physically strenuous and participants must be in good physical health. Students should be prepared to work in difficult situations, both above and below ground. Each student must demonstrate his or her ability to ascend (on rope) 30 meters, change over, rappel part way down, tie off a descender, correct a jammed descender, and then rappel safely to the ground as part of initial check-in skills.
