SARQUEST 2018

Search and Rescue (SAR) Albertais the provincial association for the volunteer based group for all search and rescue activities. Across Alberta there are over 1600 individual members of SAR that provide over $2.5 million annually in infrastructure support. What does that mean? Our volunteer members support regional police, fire, emergency response, security, first aid and other critical functions throughout the entire province. In 2017 the SAR groups of Alberta and their members engaged in 3012 exercises, 2119 events, and 280 incidents. This is a total of 125,088 hours in the field to help, protect and support Albertan’s in need. Without this support, Albertans wouldn’t have received the CPR they needed, the protection from further head and spinal trauma, the bleeding control needed, and the rescue to bring them home.NorQuest College Continuing Education & Custom Trainingis dedicated to providing workforce relevant programs giving employers a competitive advantage through their developed talent.

SARQUEST 2018
SAR Alberta and NorQuest College have partnered to create an inaugural training days event for the SAR members. SARQUEST is an opportunity for members of SAR to learn of new technologies, hear from industry experts on relevant and vital SAR topics and procedures, and, ultimately thank our SAR members for the work and time they put in.
With NorQuest College, the event will include numerous industry speakers, networking and sharing opportunities; as well as the SAR’s annual general meeting (AGM) will be held during the event.
