Learning from the professionals at SKYLOTEC's training center
The correct use of personal protective equipment against falls from a height (PPE) is vital. Therefore, SKYLOTEC's Vertical Rescue College (VRC) offers various trainings for the instruction of PPEgA and addresses your individual needs.
Our trainers bring many years of experience in a wide variety of operational areas and have conducted numerous training courses. They are members of rescue organizations and regularly participate in further training. This guarantees the high quality of our trainings. In addition, the trainers of the Vertical Rescue College are often invited as speakers at various German professional associations to share their knowledge.
All trainings at our VRC are subject to strict hygiene measures so that we can guarantee the highest level of safety for all participants and trainers.
