Wilderness First Responder Recertification Hybrid

Course Description

Are your wilderness medicine protocols on the tip of your tongue or in the bottom of your pack? This 2 day scenario-based course is designed as review and practice of evacuation and decision making guidelines. It also provides wilderness medicine practitioners with current updates in the wilderness medicine field. This course has online pre-work that must be done prior to arriving on day 1. The material will be sent by NOLS and allows for 2 days in person instead of 3.

This course may be used to recertify Wilderness First Responder and Wilderness EMT (wilderness portion only) certifications. You must possess a valid WFR certification of at least 70 hours in order to recertify through this course. It is your responsibility to make sure that your certification meets this standard. If you are unsure, please contact WMI before enrolling in a course. Upon successful course completion you will earn a wilderness medicine certification from WMI of NOLS.

The WFR Recertification Course is pre-approved for 18 hours of EMT Continuing Education Hours (CEH) by the Continuing Education Coordinating Board for Emergency Medical Services (CECBEMS).
