October 22, 2022 @ 8:00 am – 3:30 pm
When a tree worker is injured or incapacitated aloft, typically fellow crew members are the first to respond. An emergency could develop at any time, and tree care professionals must know how to react.
TCIA’s Aerial Rescue Training Program helps protect your workers and meet the aerial rescue training requirements mandated by ANSI Z133.1 and OSHA.
This certificate program is designed to be used in combination with on-the-job training and practice, so that crews have the knowledge and skills needed to evaluate an emergency situation and potentially rescue an injured tree worker.
Registration starts at 8:00am. Class to begin at 8:30am and be completed by 3:30pm.
Instructors: Eric Freesmeyer, Gary Kohler
Capacity: 30 Beginners/15 Advanced
