IASARC Transforms SAR Coordination into an Internationally Recognized Profession
A cornerstone of any profession is the concept of professional conformity. The proficiency of members is based on certain identifiable skills, attitudes and a corporate body of knowledge. IASARC’s principal objective is to establish certification requirements for key positions within SAR coordination and aligning terminology with the IAMSAR Manual and its founding conventions. An independent body of experts are establishing uniform, minimum requirements to attain a professional certification.
