Do you like to spend time outdoors? Accidents happen; if you or someone in your group got hurt, would you know what to do? People get hurt, sick, or lost. Many back country emergencies are preventable and even when bad things happen, sometimes the wrong care can make things worse.

Note:
Please note effective, January 1, 2020: Those students who are looking to use the Wilderness First Aid Course to renew their Wilderness First Responder Training SOLO has implemented a new policy regarding certification.
