WFR Recertification (WFRR)
Course Description
This course is fast-paced and engaging. You’ll spend time outside of the classroom doing hands-on skills and realistic scenarios. In addition to scenarios, you’ll participate in two full-scale mock rescues, one of which may be at night. You’ll be taught by dynamic instructors who have practiced both wilderness and urban medicine.
Class Format
The WFR Recertification will reinforce and build upon the knowledge already acquired and will focus primarily on practical skills and wilderness rescue scenarios. We suggest you prepare for your Wilderness First Responder Recertification course by studying prior to the course start date. Students who are the most successful, report that they reviewed their textbook and studied their notes from their previous course. Attendance is required for all scheduled classes. Scenarios and practice sessions will take place both inside and outside. Simulated rescues will take place outside, rain or shine.
