What are your other courses?

We offer many programs beyond the core courses, including recertification courses for WFAs and WFRs, upgrades (e.g., from street EMT to Wilderness EMT), courses for international travel, disaster preparation and response, advanced programs for professionals, and more.

What is your course schedule?

We make it easy for you to search our complete course schedule, for courses at our main campus in New Hampshire, and for courses across the country and around the world. There are filters to help you find exactly the right course. And you can book many courses online.
