Join the Team
Timpanogos Emergency Response Team
Service on Mount Timpanogos requires dedication, skill, and reliability. TERT operates on an annual selection cycle. We review applications once per year to select a cohort of new members who demonstrate the aptitude and commitment required for our mission.
The submission window closes strictly at the end of September.
While not strictly required to apply, possessing these skills will significantly prioritize your application during the review process.
Amateur (Ham) Radio
Communication in the field is critical. Significant preference is given to applicants holding a valid Amateur Radio License.
We strongly encourage obtaining your technician license prior to the October review period.
Advanced Medical Training
Applicants with certifications beyond basic first aid are highly sought after. Current WFR, EMT, Paramedic, RN, or MD certifications are viewed very favorably.
Please include copies of any relevant medical certifications with your application packet.
CPR & Basic First Aid
This is the baseline for safety on the mountain. While you may submit your application prior to certification, all selected members must provide proof of current CPR and Basic First Aid certification before their first scheduled shift.
*Failure to secure certification by the January team meeting will result in forfeiture of your roster spot.
Submit your digital application. Late submissions will be held for the following year.
Our board selects candidates based on operational needs, prioritizing those with radio and advanced medical skills.
Selected candidates are invited for interviews. Successful applicants will have background checks performed by the Utah County Sheriff's Office.
New members officially join the roster. CPR/First Aid certifications must be completed and verified before the first team training date.
