The Rescue 3 Whitewater Rescue Technician (WRT) is the ideal course for Professional guides (Canyon, Kayak or Raft) and recreational paddlers.
Adapted from the Rescue 3 SRT, this course assumes some prior knowledge of whitewater hydrology and equipment, maximising the available time for training in rescue techniques.
We address your concerns regarding real life scenarios and teach you how to cope with these situations using the equipment and personnel you would expect to have at your disposal.
This qualification is recognised internationally as the standard for professional raft guides and holds equivalent value to the WWSR in the BCU award scheme.
