Expect dynamic instructors with lots of backcountry experience. Expect to spend lots of time outside with realistic scenarios. There will be intense but rewarding days. You need to pass both the written and the practical tests in order to receive NOLS Wilderness Medicine international WFR certification.

We expect you to be on time each day. We expect you to come prepared each morning. We expect you to be respectful of other participants and our staff – both in the classroom and during our scenarios outside. We expect you to take good care of the equipment. We hope you will ask us if you don’t understand. We expect you to have studied before course start as we start the course on Friday morning with the written test.
We expect you to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and have read and agreed to NOLS Wilderness Medicine COVID-19 Disclosure, Practices and Expectations for Students.
