Rescue Training
An emergency requires fast and efficient response – and that only works through routine. Anyone who wants to act correctly under stress and time pressure must have a perfect command of the tree rescue procedure. This is achieved through regular training.
With this 4-hour course you fulfill the annually required instruction prescribed by the legislator according to §14 ASchG. At the same time, the rescue training serves as proof of recertification for SKT A, B, C, and aerial work platform certifications.
