Students practice skills and scenarios as they venture past crystal clear rivers, open meadows, old growth redwoods, wind-swept bluffs, and remote beaches in this two-day WFA program. Big Sur provides a superlative location to earn your certification and gain skills for your next adventure. Camping is included in course tuition. (WFR Recertification also available.)
This is undoubtedly one of our flagship experiences- 15 years running. Five days of medical training at the incredible Big Creek Reserve in Big Sur, CA. Coastal redwoods, rugged canyons, gorgeous beaches, ocean vistas, sunsets, wildlife- an ideal place to unplug, inspire, and immerse yourself.
Complete self-paced online coursework before you arrive, then spend the week in the field. You leave with WFR, CPR/AED, and Epi Auto Injector certifications valid for 2 years with a one year extension.
Class size is limited to 12 (sometimes 16) depending on the reserve assets available for the week. Camping is included in the tuition. The food program is an additional charge ($160) that we highly recommend. Details below.
