The Tree Climbing Rescue in Practice course is prepared for experienced tree climbers, professionals,
but also for enthusiastic amateur tree climbers - e.g. T5 geocachers who want to be prepared for the situation,
when it will be necessary to evacuate an injured colleague using rope techniques.

The course is suitable as preparation for the ETW (European Tree Worker) certification exam,
CCA (Czech Certified Arborist - Tree Climber).

You will find a solution to the real dangers that tree climbers face at work every day.
All course participants will first be introduced to rescue techniques with a visual demonstration.
Subsequently, each participant will try to save an "injured" colleague firsthand under the guidance of experienced lecturers.
In pairs, you will have the opportunity to experience what it is like to be rescued, but also to actively rescue an injured colleague.
