Now Available: Hybrid + Online Courses
Created in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen a tremendous increase in the need for students to continue to learn about, and gain the skills necessary to handle emergencies in the backcountry – as well as first aid in general.
In response, we launched several FREE online programs such as STOP THE BLEED and Tick Talk. In addition, we now also offer several blended learning certification courses like our most popular course, Wilderness First Aid, Wilderness First Responder, Adult + Pediatric CPR/AED, and our NEW Education Presentation Series.

Hybrid Wilderness First Aid – an Online Course
Headed on an upcoming BSA High Adventure program (such as Philmont, Northern Tier, Sea Base, etc.) and other amazing summer adventures!
Our Newly Updated Hybrid Wilderness First Aid course covers the same content as the traditional (in-person) Wilderness First Aid class; however, the big difference is that in addition to the core course topics, the Hybrid format course also consists of additional resources, videos and more.
In order to practice what we teach regarding utilizing appropriate body substance isolation (BSI) and personal protective equipment (PPE), the reason behind CWS offering online training is for participants to obtain a majority of the didactic information through a self-paced learning, while safely distanced from others.
In order for participants to earn the Wilderness First Aid certification, one all-day, in-person, practical-focused session will need to be completed after successfully completing the online portion of the course. If students are able to appropriately demonstrate skills learned during that day and complete any associated assessments, only then will they earn their Wilderness First Aid certification.
What are the Benefits of Blended (Hybrid) Learning?
With our hybrid blended learning format, you can work at your own pace, complete the online portion from home or anywhere else that you’ve got internet, then schedule the in-person skills session at a time that’s good for you.
