This course is the industry standard for professional guides, trip leaders, search and rescue team members, outdoor recreationists and international travelers. The curriculum covers prevention, early recognition and treatment of medical emergencies in the backcountry or in remote settings with delayed access to emergency services as well as leadership, risk management and decision making.
The class is $290 for tuition only, or $490 for tuition with meals and lodging. To register and for more information, go to www.nols.edu/portal/wmi/courses/13388/.
