:: Workshop Goal
The goal of this workshop is to provide participants with an unique opportunity to learn the tools and knowledge necessary to successfully look in the right place, understand lost person behavior, see the latest research, apply statistical tables, identify needed special investigation, and deploy resources in the field. Participants should also be able to brief other searchers on key components of lost person behavior. Everyone needs to know where to look from the field searcher to search management. The course makes extensive use of real-life examples, with over a dozen map problems.
The course will be instructed by Robert J. Koester the author of the text and a recognized leader in search and rescue. Participants will recieve a copy of Lost Person Behavior by Robert Koester textbook and workshop workbook.
This applied training session is intended for public safety responders involved in search and rescue.
The course has no prerequisites. Those with a search and rescue background will get the maximum benefit from the course. It can serve as a useful bridge between field and management.
