NOLS WFR Recert

I did my NOLS WFR recert with Ready SF. In my 15-odd years of maintaining a WFR, it was one of the least tedious recerts I've taken. The instructors, Megan and Jennifer, were working from a solid knowledge base and brought great energy to the course. The class location on the Marin Headlands was exceptional!

Inclusive Learning

I had Dave, one of Ready SF's long-time instructors, for my Wilderness First Responder Course recertification this past weekend. Dave was incredibly knowledgable, personable, and made the course and class culture inclusive and psychologically safe. Ready SF placed emphasis on mental health first-aid, which I very much appreciated, and based the course curriculum on the latest research and science. I...

Wilderness First Responder

I've taken first aid in some fashion every few years since the 80s -in the military, sponsored by various organizations, Red Cross, and even the NOLS Wilderness First Aid through a different provider. I recently took the Wilderness First Responder taught by Ready SF and it was great. This was my favorite and most complete. The time investment is high,...
