Know Before You Go: Outdoor Readiness Essentials is an empowering, hands-on training designed for anyone who wants to feel more confident and prepared in the outdoors. For just $99, you'll gain critical skills and knowledge in first aid, survival, and outdoor safety—all while earning certifications in American Red Cross CPR/AED and Stop the Bleed. Learn how to build and use a first aid kit, understand the Hike Safe principles and 10 Essentials, make smart clothing and gear choices, and explore vital survival techniques and technology—including how to use SPOT, Garmin, and other GPS tools to stay found.

Want to take your training further? Participants also have the option to earn a Wilderness First Aid (WFA) certification by completing an additional 8 hours of online coursework before class begins on September 27, followed by a written test at the end of the in-person session. If you would like to do the WFA certification as well please look for that class as it's a different registration.
Whether you're new to hiking or an experienced adventurer, this course will help you prepare for the unexpected and explore with confidence.
