What is the ''Approval Assessment'' for?
If candidates can prove that they have the necessary broad experience and all relevant technical skills, but do not have the formal ERCA qualification as a ''Generic Rescuer'', they can be admitted to the Approval Assessment upon application. As part of the Approval Assessment, the theoretical knowledge and practical skills will be examined to ensure that a comparable pre-qualification is available before access to the training course for trainers is granted.
