Important note: EVERY student MUST have their own email. If parents are setting this up for their child, they might have to create an email (maybe one that their child never uses?). We apologize for this inconvenience but all eBooks, Online codes, and certification cards are sent to students via email and can only be sent directly to the student.

Going to Northern Tier, Summit Bechtel Reserve, Philmont Scout Ranch, or Sea Base? Our WFA / CPR / AED course is perfect for you !
The basics:
What age must students be? The Scouts website says "Youth (14 years old and up) and adult Scout leaders are encouraged to take a 16-hour WFA course" This does not place a rule on the age of students. The requirements for any class is that the student can understand the material, perform the skills on a manikin or simulated casualty, and pass a written test. We have had 12 year old students pass this course.
Will our certifications be accepted? The scouts allow Emergency Care & Safety Institute (ECSI) instructors to teach WFA - click here. Big Texas CPR LLC is an ECSI training Center. Click here and use 77378 zip to find us listed as such.
Wilderness First Aid is required for all high adventure camps.
Cost includes 2 year access to the online course, a seat in a Big Texas CPR LLC Skill session, Certification good for 2 years.
Skills sessions are Mandatory after completing the online course. We usually hold our Skill Sessions in Conroe Texas.

*Important note: This is NOT an 'Online course". Many companies will not accept 'online certification'. Our certifications are the exact same as those issued after a live classroom session, and do NOT indicate online training. This is because our students MUST meet an instructor and complete a Skills Session before we issue certification.
