Frequently Asked Questions:
Where are classes taught?
Almost anywhere! We can travel worldwide.
The preferred setting for wilderness medicine classes will have an indoor environment or outdoor shelter for lecture and slide presentations, with an outdoor setting for skills practice and scenarios. However, the classes can be adapted to any environment, indoors or outdoors.
We can set up a location or come to you.

How much do classes cost and why isn't this disclosed on the website?
The cost of classes varies depending on the duration of the class, location, amenities, number of instructors needed, materials, the skills being taught, and whether CME is included.
Most classes are charged on a per person basis and will have a minimum number of students in order for the class to make.
A basic first aid or CPR class may be as little as $50 per person. Longer duration classes or courses with CME may be several hundred dollars per person.
What's your cancellation policy?
