Since this is an Online/Hybrid course, here’s how it all works (including the hands-on portion).
Our online hybrid program gives you access to your course for two full years – plenty of time to complete your certification!
First, create an account and register for this course.
Then complete the Online portion of class with a passing score of 80% or better (final written exam included).
Once you’ve successfully completed the Online portion of class, you will be issued an Online Certificate with a unique Registration Code to use in order to register for a Hands-On Session.
Hands-On Sessions are available primarily only in the greater Washington DC, Northern Virginia, Maryland area at this time.
Students may also attend *just* One Day of a traditional (100% in-person) Wilderness First Aid course. Visit our Course Schedule to register for your In-Person Session (separate registration required).
