Course Overview
Our Hybrid WFR Recertification includes an online component in addition to the traditional scenarios and skills. The online pre-course work allows you to review the curriculum at your own pace, and focus on the hands-on element during your two days on course. The pre-course work must be completed by the course start date. Once on course, the scenario-based approach to recertification provides you the opportunity to test your skills against realistic situations. You'll practice and relearn wilderness medicine protocols, review evacuation and decision making guidelines, and receive the latest updates in wilderness medicine over the course of two days.

Successful course completion will earn the following NOLS Wilderness Medicine certifications:
Wilderness First Responder
Adult, Child, and Infant CPR & Airway Management
