OET

Outdoor Emergency Transportation is the premier educational program of the National Ski Patrol! Our goal is to present the finest training resources available for our patrollers and others in the outdoor recreational community as they prepare to treat, extricate, and evacuate our injured guests.

For additional reference, we've provided a link to the pdf of the NSP transportation manual.

The Senior Patroller Program is the next step beyond Basic Patroller.   Achieving Senior Patroller status is the logical next step for those who want to achieve a higher level of patroller skills that will help make you a more confident and competent patroller on your hill.
