Want to work as a river guide? Or lead your next backcountry adventure?
You'll need the basic professional medical qualification as a certified wilderness first responder.
My hat's off to WMA, the folks who certify my WFR. They don't call 'em Wild Meds for nothing.

This is no cookie-cutter outfit. Plan for a rigorous 10-day course that includes both a practical and a written exam. Not cheap: it will set you back $600-$1,000.
You'll emerge trained to think critically and act appropriately in emergency situations.
And you can believe the hype. I counted five students in my last recert who came over from competitors and said they'd never recertify with anyone else again.
(To stay current, you'll need to renew your WMA WFR cert every three years at a cost of $300-600. No exceptions.)
