Wilderness First Aid
Wilderness First Aid with CPR & AED
This class is taught to both Scouters and Non- Scouters who want to learn first aid before any high adventure trip.
Learn the skills required for medical emergencies you may encounter in the back country. This class will teach you the first aid you will need when you are miles away from outside help and you may be the only trained person who could save a life.

We also offer this as a Hybrid Course. Click here for details.
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.
BSA Wilderness First Aid is required for all high adventure camps.
