All advanced skills and capabilities must be rooted in a basic foundation of knowledge and training. SAR is the foundation on which all emergency response is based. SAR training enables the first responder to acquire knowledge, skills, and self confidence that not only produces better results, but also offers definite benefits to the community in general when any emergency response is required. The "basic skills and knowledge" contained within this text and program is entry level information for emergency response whether the environment be wilderness, rural, urban, or disaster.

All of the skills and knowledge from ERI's Search and Rescue Skills (Wilderness) course will be needed by disaster responders. The additional skills and information specific to the disaster environment (and various disaster agents) is the focus of this course.
