Hello Outdoor Enthusiasts,
The Department of Recreation Leadership at Lindenwood University is
sponsoring a Wilderness First Responder (WFR) certification course through
Wilderness Medical Associates (WMA). This course is open to the public and
participants will be able to earn the most recognized level of training for
wilderness protocols.
Wilderness First Responder (WFR) is the ideal medical training for outdoor
educators, guides, SAR team members, and others who work or play in remote
areas. The curriculum is comprehensive and practical, including the
essential principles and skills required to assess and manage medical
problems in isolated and extreme environments. This course will teach you
how to save lives and reduce further injury in the wilderness when medical
assistance is not readily available.
The course will be held during the Fall semester starting August 31 and
ending December 7. This is a 72 hour certification course that meets weekly
on Wednesday nights from 6:00-9:30 p.m. and the following three Saturdays;
October 1, October 22, and November 12 from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Registration is $600 and the deadline is July 6, 2011
To register or for more information please see the attached document or
