WORK AT HEIGHT & ROPE ACCESS PROGRAM<br />

This program follow HSE guidelines and EU-requirements<br />

for working at height. They have been developed<br />

in close cooperation with our sister company<br />

Ascent Safety; which is a full member of both IRATA<br />

& SPRAT (worlds leading Rope <strong>Access</strong> Associations).<br />

Ascent and is a widely recognised specialist in the<br />

field of Height Safety and Rescue! We have combined<br />

their knowledge with our operational background and<br />

experience in special operations. This cooperation<br />

results in bomb-proof work solutions!<br />

TACTICAL URBAN ACCESS COURSE<br />

With the help of our extensive network we developed<br />

a comprehensive Tactical Urban <strong>Access</strong> Course<br />

(TUAC). This is not about abseiling and making silly<br />

knots. Rather than showing techniques that look<br />

fancy, we provide solutions that work! With the help<br />

of your new skill set and the aid of innovative equipment<br />

you will be able to go beyond the point where<br />

you had to stop before. And, as always, in a safe and<br />

effective manner.<br />

Our training certifies that your operators meet all<br />

legal health and safety requirements for the job in<br />

a very practical and effective manner! Suitable for<br />

urban and industrial environment .<br />

The course covers the use of a wide variety of innovative<br />

equipment (air launchers, manual and pneumatic<br />

poles and power ascenders) as well as basic climbing<br />

skills and the use of minimal gear in urban environment.<br />

COURSE PROGRAM IN 3 LEVELS<br />

This program breaks down in 3 courses: Basic,<br />

Advanced and Supervisor. Each level consists of 4<br />

training days and one assessment day. If required the<br />

Basic Course can be completed with an IRATA Level 1<br />

Assessment (the world wide certification for civilian<br />

Rope <strong>Access</strong> Operators). Note how ever that this<br />

course program is not a generic rope access course!<br />

TARGET AUDIENCE<br />

These courses are ideal for many military and law<br />

enforcement applications. Some examples:<br />

• Police negotiators (suicide jumpers, hostage<br />

rescue, etc.).<br />

• Removing activists.<br />

• Covert surveillance (audio & video placement,<br />

covert operations that should look like civilian<br />

activities).<br />

• Military Engineering (building structures, communication<br />

systems, etc.).<br />

• Military, Law Enforcement & Rescue instructors<br />

to improve knowledge and broad skill set that is<br />

needed for trainers.<br />

All courses are adapted to the specific needs of the<br />

participants: train to the job!<br />

The first week we will build a comprehensive "toolbox"<br />

consisting of skills and techniques. This building<br />

block is organized in our purpose built training centre.<br />

The second week we will visit several locations around<br />

the Netherlands for scenario based training. Scenario<br />

training is an essential part of the course. Candidates<br />

have to be very fit. At the end of the course it all<br />

comes together in various practical scenarios.<br />

These courses are aimed at Law Enforcement and<br />

Military special operations units (CT/SO/Intelligence/<br />

SWAT).<br />
