Rope Access and Rescue Training
Rope access and rescue have one big thing in common—there’s always a life on the end of the line
Our purpose is to help save lives. With a mission to innovate the equipment and education that keep people safe in high-risk environments, we build the tools and develop the training to help our customers perform their jobs with greater safety and efficiency.
Rope access and rescue have one big thing in common—there’s always a life on the end of the line. There are differences to be sure.
Rope access work is typically planned in advance, while a rescue is full of unknowns. But the skills and techniques used by anyone working at height come from the same pool of knowledge and experience.No one knows that better than CMC. As one of the founding members of the Society of Professional Rope Access Technicians (SPRAT) in 1995, we’ve helped to develop the standards for rope access training and safety, and create the certification process for rope access technicians.
Whether they’re being used by a worker on the side of a skyscraper or to help retrieve a victim in a rescue, the tools that CMC develops and delivers to its customers are the gold standard for preserving life and keeping people safe.

Training for Emergency Response and Work at Height Professionals
Training for Emergency Response and Work at Height Professionals
CMC has long been recognized as a leader in the rescue equipment industry. This expertise naturally led to the teaching of rescue techniques and the establishment of the CMC School. In the early 1980s, CMC developed one of the first curriculums for teaching mountain rescue skills.
Over the years, the CMC School has evolved to include open enrollment and contract classes in Rope Rescue, Confined Space Rescue Technician, Trench Rescue Technician, and Structural Collapse Shoring. Contract classes are also available in Tower Rescue, Tactical Rappelling, Rescue for Stage Riggers and Rescue for Fall Protection.
Our consulting services are frequently utilized to establish training needs for specialized emergency response and specific industrial situations.
Learn By Doing | Hands-On Rescue Training with Seasoned Instructors
Safe, effective rescuers need hands-on training to develop the necessary skills for work in the field. CMC School’s method of “learn by doing” is what sets us apart from other training programs. Guided by seasoned CMC School instructors, students work with the tools of the trade, solving realistic rescue scenarios under real-life conditions.
This type of applied learning allows students to readily employ the knowledge and skills gained through our classes in actual rescue-response situations.
