Why Choose Vimpex Rescue Academy?

Vimpex appreciates the challenges that rescue services face in maintaining high levels of learning and development in the face of significant budgetary constraint. While we price our courses to be accessible, no compromise is made with regards to quality and content.

Our understanding of the operating environment that services experience means that there is an emphasis on practicality in everything we do. We deliver training at your site and work with your equipment so that the training we provide is effective immediately with no further investment required.

Learn on your own site

In order for our training to be as practical, convenient and cost-effective as possible, all training is delivered at your own site. This provides a familiar environment for learning, as well as saving on time and costs spent on travel and accommodation.

Use your own equipment

We deliver training using your own facilities, meaning trainees are already familiar with the appliances and equipment they are handling. This gives rise to efficient and practical learning that your team can capitalise upon with immediate effect.

Individual assessment
