Most people don’t have the time to attend a two-day, sixteen-hour Wilderness First Aid Course. We make training convenient and available on your own terms.
The School of First Aid’s Online Wilderness First Aid Certification course covers over thirty topics using concise, to-the-point presentations, illustrations, demonstrations, and downloadable handouts. This course is an entire Wilderness First Aid Course that you can enjoy without spending an entire weekend in a classroom.
If your employment or volunteer work requires you to be WFA Certified, this course is for you. The course includes a Virtual Skills Assessment required for a two-year WFA certification. Complete the online portion of the course and schedule a skills assessment with your instructor. Learn more about the Virtual Skills Assessment here.
