Search & Recovery Training

Unlike traditional emergency response programs, our search and recovery program is focused on educating students in professional techniques of evidence retrieval, victim and vehicle recovery.

Search and recovery involves not only aquatic environments but also adjacent land surveys.  Our program is ideal for training municipality law enforcement, emergency response, and associated emergency medical teams in techniques that help them recover people, property, and evidence both on land and under water.
