Using the ‘Rescue 3 accredited’ logo

What is the ‘Rescue 3 accredited’ logo?

The ‘Rescue 3 accredited’ logo shows that an organisation or individual currently holds a Rescue 3 qualification.

Rescue 3 training courses are delivered by approved Rescue 3 training providers, according to the Rescue 3 course standards. Each student completes an individually-numbered skill sheet (training log), which is logged and checked in the Rescue 3 training provider database. Certificates are then issued to those students.

 

Who can use the ‘Rescue 3 accredited’ logo?

Any organisation or individual who has in-date Rescue 3 students may display the ‘Rescue 3 accredited’ logo on their website.

There are currently more than 60,000 in-date Rescue 3 students worldwide, from more than 4,000 different organisations. There are more than 300 Rescue 3 training providers, delivering over 3,500 Rescue 3 courses worldwide every year.

Any of these people or their organisations may choose to use the ‘Rescue 3 accredited’ logo.

If you place it on your website, we ask that you please link the image to www.rescue3europe.com (Europe) or www.rescue3.com (rest of the world).

Where can I use the ‘Rescue 3 accredited’ logo?

Anywhere that you are accurately reflecting your relationship to Rescue 3.

This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Websites
  • Email signatures
  • Signs
  • Displays
  • Other marketing materials
  • PPE and equipment
  • Vehicles

If you wish to get a tattoo of the logo, please Contact Us first and we’ll try to talk you out of it. If there’s no discouraging you, we’ll at least try to persuade you to get a small tattoo on your upper arm, rather than a full face tattoo.

 

How can I check if someone is accredited by Rescue 3?

Every Rescue 3 student receives a PDF certificate by email upon completion of the course. These show their unique skill sheet number, and the qualification expiry date. They also include a QR code which can be used to check their authenticity.

A sample certificate is shown below. Certificates are available in more than 30 different languages, based upon the preferred language of the training provider and/or student, but they all follow the same format.

 

Students may also optionally purchase an ID card which has their photo, and a QR code that provides a live list of all their qualifications.

Use of the ‘accredited’ logo on its own doesn’t prove an in-date qualification. Always ask for a certificate or an ID card if verifying a qualification.

You can also contact the Rescue 3 head office to check the qualification details of any Rescue 3 training provider, instructor or student.

 

How long are Rescue 3 qualifications valid for?

All student-level Rescue 3 qualifications are valid for 3 years from the date of completion.

Rescue 3 instructors must recertify every 2 years.

 

How can I check if I’m receiving Rescue 3 training?

Rescue 3 training must be delivered by a Rescue 3 Training Provider using trained and in-date Rescue 3 instructors, and following the Rescue 3 course standards.

All students will fill in a Rescue 3 skill sheet, which the training provider logs in the Rescue 3 training provider database, and which is checked by Rescue 3.

At the end of the course, all students receive a PDF certificate by email.

If you haven’t received your certificate after the course, contact the training provider who delivered it to you in the first instance. If you still need help, you can contact Rescue 3 directly.

 

Which image formats is the ‘Rescue 3 accredited’ logo available in?

If you need it in another format, please get in touch – we may be able to help.

 

Can I change the ‘Rescue 3 accredited’ logo?

Please don’t add/remove text or images to the logo, change the colours, or make other changes to the logo.

 

What other Rescue 3 logos are there?

The Rescue 3 logo is used to refer to both Rescue 3 Europe and Rescue 3 International. Rescue 3 Europe is the accrediting body for all Rescue 3 training within Europe. Rescue 3 International is the accrediting body for all Rescue 3 training in the rest of the world (outside of Europe).

The above three logos must only be used with the express written permission of Rescue 3. (No written permission is needed for the ‘Rescue 3 accredited’ logo).

 

Only approved Rescue 3 training providers may use the ‘Rescue 3 Europe training provider’ or ‘Rescue 3 International training provider’ logo, depending on their jurisdiction. (See Become a Training Provider if you would like to become an approved training provider).
